Array ( [sid] => 164699 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => let go, those dreams were only dreams. [time] => 2011-02-10 16:50:36 [hometext] => reality has no room for fantasy. [bodytext] => When life is life,
and dreams are dreams,
When love turns to hate,
and the fairytale ends,
the only thing left is truth.

When fantasy never becomes reality,
and what you believe
is no longer the same,
how you handle that
is going to define you,
so hold tight to truth, and truth alone.

Never shut people out,
they are important,
no matter the cost.
Some will disgrace you,
Some will annoy you,
Some will despise you,
but some, they will love you.
Love is good, even when it is lost,
the saying is true, so let them all in.

hating humanity is part of your journey
but never let that hate become who you are;
because,
someone, somewhere feels exactly the same,
which means,
someone, somewhere could reverse the chaos
someone, somewhere can and will save us,
someone, somewhere is just like you….

Nice Poem. Agree with Tom how it's nice that it didn't end up being what I was expecting by the title. I'm glad to see the realization that while we may hate life itself, well the people mostly; it's necessary to understand that beyond that hate is a world worse than what you're already used to, so it's best to accept the fact you have that hate, and try to embrace a better world regardless.

Such a bold statement, and so true. Truth is something many refuse to face. Fantasies are just fantasy, and reality is real. Truth is what motivates me, and truth is what I see. There are so many people in the world with so many fantasies refusing to see reality.

absolutely agree. You can stay angry and still remain connected - it's the disconnect that leads to withdrawal from the world into an unsupportable fantasy.
