dose of reality

"circles, we're going in circles
dizzy's all it makes us
we know where it takes us
we've been before"


do you ever have that feeling
when you come to the realization that your dreams are too far fetched,
that they aren't going to happen?
if you haven't let me tell you,
its not pleasant.

i have no chance of being famous,
so like half of my dreams are out right there.
those celebrity crushes have no idea who i am,
cross out some more dreams. 
professional athlete?
hah, don't make me laugh.

i have now got the feeling that i am going in circles.
whats the point of dreaming when they wont come true.
i want that life that i dream up in dreams,
the one that isn't like the terribly dull one that i have now.

"if your dreams don't scare you, they aren't big enough."
false.
your dreams should be achievable or else you are just going to feel like a hopeless failure when they don't come true, right?

i have accepted the reality that i am not the princess.
or the girl in the story who magically gets her life flipped upside down for the better.
but deep down i always knew it,
i just didn't want it to be true.

  1. This is excatly what I have been thinking about for the past week. Everywhere I turn I have realized that it is impossible for me to get what I have dreamed for. You are not alone.

  2. I have been feeling this way too and so I've been living off of this quote "To live is to love. To love is to feel. To feel is to hurt. To hurt is to try. To try is to fail. To fail is to die. To die...well that is the adventure my friends."
    Does that help?
    probably not.
    sorry
    But just like Sierra said, you aren't alone.
