Things Aren'T Always What They Seem

Things aren’t always what they seem
Is this really life or is it a dream
It’s very hard to tell these days
Life is harder in so many ways
Just a sleeping dream of reality
Dreaming of life without clarity
Through the day then sleeping in dreams
Replaying It all through the night it seems
A virtual perpetual looping of life
Going on and on and causing strife
Nothing can stop the hands of time
As old as the hills and mountains we climb
Now am I awake or am I asleep?
Is that a snore or do I speak?

Well, I guess it all depends on what you read or what you believe. I find it hard to think that this is all just an illusion and the table isn't really there ... LOL ... great writing here!!
