Illusion and Reality
In front of the reality that constantly collides with us,
people find a moment of solace
in the illusion of dreams they see with their eyes closed.
While walking among dreams
gaining an experience of happiness
that they never attained—
is it an escape from life?
Or is it the freedom
that a weary heart seeks
when confronted by the harshness of reality?
And when, at last, the illusion fades,
the fantasy comes to an end,
and reality returns—
Was that brief dream you saw
really a moment wasted in life?
Or was it, perhaps,
a gift you gave
to yourself?
