Wake Up

My words bleed onto the pages like water from a storm

Leaving my mind like the tears of a widow

The tension is lessened, but the pain is always present

I always knew that my hope was imagined

The only cure is to forget

There’s no returning what is lost

What man can bring his dead friend back to life?

What woman can resurrect her dead sister?

No one has the power to change the past

Even God can’t reverse the clock

You can’t undone what you’ve already done

You have to grow up

Dreams are just dreams

Illusion

Fantasy

You are old enough to see the difference between fairy tale and real life

Stop pretending you don’t see the difference

You must grow up

Get rid of the child inside of you

If you have to, erase him

Do whatever you must

Stop dreaming and wake up

It’s time to face reality

You have to stop acting like a child

Don’t pretend what you feel is really real

Pain is real, believe in that

Listen to your pain,

Pain doesn’t lie

Let go of your emotions

Don’t let your heart control you

Your heart is not the mind

It does not see

It does not think

You cannot trust it

You cannot listen to it

It has never told the truth

It is full of nothing but lies

Now purge your mind

And forget everything that is not real

Emotions are not real

Actions are real

Emotions never happen

You cannot prove emotions
