The World I Have Known Unitl Now

The world that I have known Till now Was something of dreams It reminds me of sunshine And pretty things The thought brings giggles And chuckles and laughs And happy, contented sighs And an assurance That It would never change It would always be a cozy blanket Tucked in at night Or a shaded spot under the sun During the day It would always be There for me That world was made of you. The world that I am aware of now Is quite different from What I thought it was It shatters the sunshine And pretty, little dreams And brings to mind a grotesque picture Of the coldness of pride And faces that are turned Away from my own Or looking at me Through cold, empty eyes And hands that had once Promised to hold me close Are clenched into fists Or waving me away Or slapping me in the face Or stabbing me in the back And rapidly disillusioning me From what I thought was But obviously isn’t No need to continue I am aware of what you are now And who you have been all along.
