Dreams are flawless worlds
where suffering, heartache, and
conflict are rare.

In dreams we will find
comfort from all things, but that's
just temporary.

Prepare for torture
as you stare into the eyes
of reality.

Betrayal's common,
nothing lasts forever, and
life isn't perfect.

I wrote this poem as a series of haiku's. Just expressing my thoughts! (:

So chilling!! Love everything. The format... How did you come up with it?! I could never come up with something as impeccable as this... Your word choice is absolutely stunning, and I really like your writing style. THe ending is super, super, super nice. I love it... Very chilling, like I said. Good.

The more control you have over yourself, the less control others have over you.
