Fantasy

The harsh truth, the acrimonious realities,
Which I strongly wanted to be untrue
Have come face to face
Am seeing things brazen
Raw, naked as they were!

That what was untrue
Was a reason for the murkiness?
But the truth which I suppress each day
The truth that hurts,
Makes me know what it means to see your softness cry
That truth wants to nullify itself each day!

Each day I wake up,
I wake up with the unfulfilled, unreachable dream
The untamed heart still wallows in search of the lie
The lie hoping it was true!
The fable wants to turn itself,
The fantasy wants to make me to be a princess in that imagined castle
………………………………………………
No, no…this is untrue
This is a falsity!
The sun is showing bright
That what was seen was in the darkness of sky
And the desired flawlessness of the dream,
Was nothing than imagery!
The heart may be blind, but the mind is sound.
……………………………………………….

But isn’t the reflection of our desires our dreams?
Isn’t that an attempt by the laced to free itself?
Isn’t that what both of them want, but still have to contradict
To let the one for whom both exits be sound!

To fasten the softer part, by the harder one
Wasn’t it to stop the brainsick from worsening...
………………………………………
The sun is much brighter now.
I can see through that what was don’t know what?
And that what comes now...
Is life!

Life has its meanings,
The dream was beautiful & cherished,
It was for the Cinderella in this soul.
But fairies, princess don’t exist...that’s what the sound makes me believe!
Yup,
I was again in the fantasy, but it could never be true
Coz, it has people like you!

few things are difficult to achieve ...but it relieves one to say them

everyone can identify with some particular thing or a phase of life with ur poem...and thats the best thing to achieve as a writer

:) every one says life is our best teacher. may be this is its own way to value, cherish and keep close what is good in our life. good people,family,moments and fun wont comeback.
iv learnt it little earlier than u, but we are fortunate that we have learnt it before stepping into the big world stage. we are prepared to face it.
a very nice write up, i liked the way u used each word. just remember buddy.
You have plenty of goodness in ur life :) share that with all those who share it with you. and then there are no sorrows bigger than ur happiness.
Cheers!
