Mirrored Reality

I don't know how much and how much is not this telling truth
he got admission in a college
but I have a feeling its not what he dreamed of
I recall the glamorous life he lived
while studying to get that one spot
in a place he dreamed of

this reminded me of my own battle
and how I lost in it three times
I finally gave up on my dream
when no road led me there
only bringing me to an end
which was a cliff to end my life
