Dream World

By shedevilrkg

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Life isn't made up of what we want it to be. The dream world we construct for ourselves only shelters us from the truth. We see only what we want to see; hear only what we want to hear. We hide ourselves from the nightmare of the real world. But what if our eyes were suddenly opened? Could we accept this new reality after years of telling ourselves it couldn't be true? If our little dream world was suddenly shattered what would we do? Written August 25th, 2001 © on Nov 17 2001 12:15 PM PST   0 • 10
