Face The Music

Doo-da, da-da-da
Fa-la-la... la-la

The music keeps on playing.
I try _hard_ to ignore it.
Turn my head around,
Imagine a different life.

Reality... is not so sweet,
When you get down to it.
I just can't do it.
Let me remain a prisoner to my imagination.

Face... what I fear to face.
Since yesterday, to this day.
It will take time.
I got to face...

FACE THE MUSIC.
Don't try to ignore,
The bare reality.

    Reality is raw and not always a pleasant place to be. I think that there are many who can relate to this poem because of that very fact. for me its always been a hard thing to do, escape to my imagination, because truth to be told, I was more afraid of a fairy tale world, than reality. because reality for me is concrete, harsh, bitter and cold. I've never been comfortable with anything else.. but lately I wouldn't mind just a small escape from it every once in awhile.. but knowing that eventually I have to come back as you say "Face The Music"... I think I'll just hold off a little longer.

    Congratulations on the spotlight.. I really think that this poem is Brilliant and carries a strong message

    hummm.... well I do understand where this is coming from. I too have had a time in my life where reality was a difficult thing for me. I wanted to be somewhere anywhere but in my reality. Good write.
