There was a girl named Matilda.
When she was young,
she dreamed of a perfect life,
but when she grew up,
she saw hatred, she saw greed,
she saw all the ugliness in this world.
Each night she closed her eyes and
dreamed of a place with nice people
where the world is peaceful and happy,
where all her dreams come true,
where she could have
a nice house by the beach.
She dreamed of the world
she could never live in.
She longed for her paradise,
never knowing that she had
everything she wanted,
right here, where she is.
