Bitter reality
By heathenpoetry
I smiled at the sun, its rays were warm and loving.
my happiness
arose
at the love that was above me
And the breeze it was
so sweet, it was still fresh from the sea
and i danced and i played
amongst the summer scented trees
Everthing was so perfect,
my smile beamed again
and i scurried down to my street,
where
i met with my best friend-
we laughed and we played; all day
it seemed,
but my alarm bell rang,
it shrieked it screamed.
I had awoken from my dream, told the new morning rays
reality
flooded illusion,
'so dawns another endless day
Like an
egg under a hammer; I shattered.
my heart sunk again
and nothing
else really mattered.

I hate when that happens, if only we could dream forever. Then we could be oblivious to the nightmares of the real world. Great write.
