Reality It’s not what I expected it to be. It’s not the years of schooling Or learning to be a functional member of society It’s being a cog A cog in comfortable machine A cog in a comfortable machine living Groundhog Day Awakening is painful It’s getting pulled away from the warmth of Reality It’s Loving embrace It’s loving embrace that covers lies and deceptions It holds you in hopes that you forget its abuse It holds you to remind you “You depend on me” But you dont Awakening is realizing that this reality is a parasite Poisoning you into believing lies that sound of your voice But they are not yours They are distorted reflections of the broken dreams of others Awakening is finding out that there is more than one reality And you can find one that fits Instead of forcing yourself to fit in the reality of others My new reality is awakening.
