“Eyes Opened; Reality Faced”

Dreams only cloud your mind.
There’s no such thing as tel’portation.
Illusions make you doubt inside
Whether your organs do their functions.

People living in delusions
Don’t know what to expect.
When eyes uncovered from illusions,
All they do is try to reject.

Many try to achieve the impossible
Without knowing that it’s stupid.
Others hope for the plausible
And wish for the arrow of cupid.

The time comes; reality is faced.
They don’t know what to do.
The thing they show is a face dazed
When they realize about the truth.

Sometimes, when one is too ladened,
They plan to escape their strife.
After filled with so much burden,
Only way out is to erase their own life.
