Awakening
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.
