Reality


Do we see the world?
Through rose tinted glasses
Are all families picture perfect?

Is everyone happy?
Does perfect love exist?
Is life like the movies?

Real life is tough
It is a mixed bag
A ruggedly beautiful mosaic

There is laughter and tears
Victory and defeat
Confidence and worry

There are songs and laments
Highs and lows
Death, pain and sorrow

Real life is tough
But it is your life
And it is real
