Words strike down,
thunder bolts of destruction
Rejection set in so quick
I feel like a **** clown
What world have I been living in
What rose colored glasses have I had on
Obviously living in a dream world
With flying pigs and cows jumping over the moon
and every other fairy tale dancing in my head

The truth be spoken as it should but
stings like acid rain, splashing, burning
I start screaming out loud,
but no one hears it falls on deaf ears
so I sit alone in fear, staring at the wall
seeing reality and creating a restless mind

Sometimes we see things as we want
but not as they are
And the vision is so strong,
it overcomes our rational mind
Disguises in the bushes with camouflage
And even tricks our heart and taints our emotions
With a secret witches potion

And then like a rock to a glass window,
all the walls fall down
And it shatters into a million pieces,
pieces that will never be put back together
No matter how hard, this glass is now broken
No matter the rock cannot be taken back
Nor the past changed

So the only choice is to accept this broken heart
To accept reality and stop living in a dream world
Wake up and smell the coffee
Move on, pack up for life moves too fast.
