Realistic


What do you feel when you wake up
The shock of life run through your body
Yet you are not sure why you are here
You get ready and walk out the door
The grass so green
The sun so bright
A painted portrait among the horizon
Nothing but the whisper of the wind
As you trail down the street
Everything's so peaceful you try not to speak
Soak up the beauty
But who's to say this isn't a dream
It feels so realistic as the sun comes into view
You try to stay calm as you realize it's time to open your eyes
The alarm screeches says it's 6:35
Time to say your finale goodbyes
Step into the real world
Try not to cry as you primp your hair
and color your eyes
Head to work what a surprise
Just 8 more hours till you are able to arrive
to that place called your dreams
Maybe one days you'll open your eyes
See that portrait and wonder
Is this real life?
