A Fantasy's Lie
How reality is....
I speak
In monotonous tones
Spoken only by those
Who have lost all faith
In life and it’s intricacies
I listen
To the cries for mercy
That scream in my head
Saying there’s nothing
To live for now
For what is life
Without love and care
It is nothing but a fantasy
Dreary days
Turn to sorrowful nights
As each passing moment
I still live through
Kills me more, Inside
Heartfelt moments
Turn to nightmares
From which one
Can never awaken from
And be assured that it was only a dream
For what is life
Without dreams and goals
It is nothing but a fantasy
I lie
On thorns of steel
Every time I dare to Imagine
How life could have been
If I were gone and dead
I feel
Every negative emotion
When I find myself
Waking up once more
Not dying in slumber
For what is life
Without pain and sorrow
It is nothing other than a fantasy
You have created in your head
