What is the time?
What is reality?
we live in a world of abstract conceptions,
how to differentiate the real from the imaginary
if we do not know what they really are.
We wander through this world thinking that we understand,
believing that we control it,
believing that we can change our destiny,
we, insignificant beings in this world,
beings with an air of grandeur,
with ephemeral existences, without importance

I'm tired,
tired of carrying this weight on the soul,
tired of fighting this endless solitude,
my body weights and slows,
my heart is dried and withered,
I want to rest,
to close my eyes and sleep,
forget this fact this reality,
travel to a world of dreams,
travel to a universe of ideas,
and lose myself in fantasy.
As I always has said I'm not very good with poetry but I decided enter the "Down with Clichés Contest" holded by :iconbekkia:

Ooh, yes! I agree completely. We spend our whole lives going off of things that seem tangible when really we have no idea about anything! Spectacular job with that topic. I agree with angel that this would be an excellent piece if prose, too, but it's still great as a poem as well. Overall, well done!
