These Dreams

I hate the reality of Life,

These fantasies and fallacies

People choose to believe in.

Do they not understand

That these things cannot exist

In this world of pain and misery?

 

I prefer to live in my little world;

My land of dreams away from Life.

There is no sadness,

No false beliefs of Love and acceptance.

In my dreams I don’t live,

And there is no pain;

No reality to bite me in the a*s.

 

Oh, these dreams.

This beautiful world in which I live.

Waking up is not an option

And dying is all there is to do.

Yes, these dreams,

The ones in which I’m dying

Are the best I’ve ever had!

I guess there is nothing worse in this world than to have a broken or incomplete dream!
The ending is just perfect and so thoughtful, Very deep !

Dreams are very likable. Well..most of the time. It depends on the dream. haha. Sometimes it's so easy to forget reality when you're in them and be taken into a world of your own imagination. It's much more fun than facing the real world.
Very nice poem, keep up the great work,
