Shaking, shaking
Hold on tight

The nightmare's
Not going to end tonight

Wake up, wake up
Face what's real

Reach out to reality
Before your mind is sealed

Wallow in it's light
it's comforting feel
Compare it to the nightmares
With their meanings concealed

But why is it dark
when you open your eyes
And why is it bright
When you shut them tight?

Look at what's in front of you,
What do you see?
Can you face the reality?
All this time, your nightmare was a hoax
And even though I tell you this,
you think it's just a joke

What's real will never change
There's only you to blame

Your reality's your nightmare
The rest was just a dream
Your wishes, your wants
Blinded you, it seems

To face those monsters everyday
For the voices to never go away
And a single fact that always stays
Your reality's your nightmare

Not the other way.

A very nice poem. Very thought provoking yet blunt at the same time which creates a perfect balance smile

WOW!!! Finally someone has written a poem on reality. I know i say this a lot but now more than ever i mean it: YOU ARE RIGHT! i know it might sound like I'm overreacting but if you had to deal with my reality you would know why i dream. when your heart, dreams, hope, and wishes have been crushed by others, you need a dream even more than you need a pound of chocolate ice cream and cookies. sigh i bet i sound like a total desperate fat a**. sad
