Reality Is A Curse

Reality is a curse;
The ones you love, the ones you cherish
Are all just in your dreams
For when you wake they will parish
As nothing in reality is what it really seems

Reality is a curse;
Close your eyes and see your beliefs
Run and hide, you shouldn’t dare
As nothing in reality is for your keeps
Anything wonderful will cut your share

Reality is a curse;
The warmth from a hug and kiss
Is all gone when you awaken
How you long for a perfect slice of bliss
But they leave you forever, they leave you shaken

Reality is a curse;
All the effervescent laughter
All the sunshine rays
Will soon be stolen, not long after
Reality is just a countdown of your days

Reality is a blessing;
You can’t live life without a little pain
It gives the smiles so much more light
Dreams are just reality’s game
You can’t live life without a little fight
