Chasing Reality
As she wanders through her forest of broken dreams
She is lost by the entanglement of her life's extremes
--
She is shocked at this harsh truth of reality
Her fantasy world had ended with such brutality
--
But there in the distance, lays ahead her fate
And as she walks towards it, who knows what will await?
--
Up ahead, she can see a sparkling pool
Ripe with tattered memories, why is she such a fool?
--
She definitely knows that she desperately needs to flee
As her image is a black shadow of what she used to be
--
The dappled waters that lay ahead remind her of her dappled life
The life that has been mottled with memories that are speckled with rife
--
Crystalline trees sway around her, branches flowing in the breeze
But as she looks closer she sees the fruit is ripe with disease
--
They seem to symbolise her life; of all the times she has cried
Beautiful on the outside, but torn and damaged inside
--
Her broken figure stands by the scintillating pool
By the pensive of her past, and what she must do to rule
--
It becomes clear to her of what she needs to do
In her shattered heart, she somehow always knew
--
She must run away from her family's attack
She must run off with her darling and never look back
