Reality Or Dream
Dreams... disappearing like life
Never truly here, never really there
Appearing for barely a glimpse goodbye
Forgotten, yet a memory too hard to bear
Once was... to never again be
What was seen that's so indescribable
How did reality steal away what I see?
How did dreams become a little less mental?
Did I disappear along for the ride?
Is my reality but dreams I do not belong?
Hiding in shadows without the light
Nowhere are both reality and dreams but gone
Let me decide what I cannot decide
I shall ask again to let me see what once was
Yet granted not what I ask in my grievance plight
I long in my everyday when yesterday was a pause
Disappearing like life... are dreams
Never really there, never truly here
Do we really know what both means?
How reality and dreams can sometimes appear
