Ode to Reality

Reality is scary!So I run awayIt's easier that wayReality is boring!So I lie awayIt's soothing that wayReality is creepy!So I block awayIt's relaxing that wayReality is depressing!So I hide awayIt's better that wayBut the world catches upWith its pointed tipsIntended just to hurtThere is no escape from itOnly cynicism and ignoranceHope is the ultimate con.
