It's Time to Wake up to Reality

May 22, 2010

I wish that you could hold me
And I wish that you could want to hold me too
I wish that you could have me
But back then it was a fantasy
Now it’s time to wake to reality

And I saw that unloved look in your eyes
It hurt, like you didn’t care any more
I hoped it was a disguise
I hoped there was more behind those deep brown eyes
But I was wrong and it’s not the first time
I guess you’re no longer mine
Maybe you never were
I think back now
And it’s all just a blur
I guess it was never really clear
Now I’m so full fear

And I wish that you could hold me
And I wish that you could want to hold me too
I wish that you could have me,
But back then it was a fantasy
Now it’s time to wake up to reality

Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with deeper meaning. Maya Angelou
