Dream!

by DaMoment

Everyone can dream, can’t they?
Most dreams won’t come true anyway
The real fantasies are on TV
Wishing it was you or someone like me
You’re sitting there watching, hoping to experience
Wake up my child, real life is the difference
You now have a house with a white picket fence
A station wagon with two kids and lots of expense
On TV they live happily ever after
In real life marriage can really be a disaster
You close your eyes and begin to dream
Not realizing life ain’t what it seem
You have a prestige job making good money
In real life you’re on welfare and it ain’t funny
In your dream you take a vacation for a week
You now toss and turn for the alarm you seek
It’s time to get up, back to the grind
Your house, two kids and husband you find
I’ll admit, life isn’t always what it seems
To get away, I’ll just dream

-Originally DaMoment

It is as you say my friend.
