Sometimes
Its better
To hide in darkness
And realize the harshness of reality
Than to live in sunshine
And dream
Of a peaceful
Unobtainable world
Author notes
Start realizing instead of dreaming.

Can relate completely, and I like how you included 'sometimes'. Lots of people argue that this way is always the best way or vice versa but it all depends on circumstance.
Great!

Interesting theory, though sometimes I think dreaming keeps us alive.

I don't agree with this. I believe dreams come true only if we work hard to make them come true. Perhaps we can't change the entire world but at least we can change our own world. Our own lives. If we feel things aren't so good we must strive to make it better instead of sitting around wishing for things to change on their own. In spite of my not agreeing I must applaud you for speaking your mind clearly in this poem. That's a true gift. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.
