Make The Choice

Contributed by maryetta on Monday, 17th January 2005 @ 11:36:48 AM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems



dreaming of a perfect world doesnt always make it so
our mind can make anything it wants except reality
but sometimes dreaming can make things bearable for us
you just have to know how far you can go with it
is it reality or dreaming you make the choice

most people choose to live in reality and for them that fine
but i function in a quasi real and daydream world
when life becomes unbearable i revert to my daydreams
i still know what is going on around me but im surviving
is it reality or dreaming you make the choice

living within your mind sometimes is a lifesaver
it eases the pain of reality and gives you a second chance
but you have to be able to balance the two or you go overboard
it is not something everyone can do or should do
is it reality or dreaming you make the choice

i live in a dream world to survive the reality of life
life has dealt me a bitter hand so i hide alot to keep going
i have some happy moments but not enough to make life bearable
so i live my dreamworld to compensate for pain caused by life
is it reality or dreaming you make the choice

The dream can sometimes fade out the harsh reality of the world, but sadly you can't hid within it forever...you can try. For I'm sure we all do at times...how easy it would be to fade away from reality...but without it we'd also miss life...and that can be a truly terrible thing...

Very well written...I guess the world we live in is only what we make of it...but I think I'd prefer the spiky truth of the world to the smooth comfort of lies that can come of too much dreaming. Wonderful piece.

interesting concept. some people would say that reality is just an illusion, and i guess it is, because life is what it is seen as, not what it is most times.
