Edge of RealityA Poem by kenya smithThe world is a dystopiaI don’t know what to believe anymore Is the life we live, real? Or, is life on earth, just my imagination The voices in my head, are telling me That reality is just a fragment of my mind That we humans are living in a dream world And we’re not realizing what the world, can actually be A wasteland dystopia, a world of sadness The human mind rather live in the imagination The imagination of a utopia The world full of happiness They are not listening to the voices, of their conscience I honestly don’t want to believe That we live in a dystopia But, if that is reality Then what are us, humans? Are we just brainwashed? Brainwashed by the fact that we’re ignorant? Or, are we just don’t want to confess that we live in a wasteland? What is wrong with the world, you ask? Everything is wrong Death, crime, disease, pollution We humans don’t realize the world we actually live in It’s a dystopia, a wasteland That is reality That we wish to not live in So we think up a nice utopia And shut out the world we live in Can we come to the fact that Is everything a dystopia? We can’t, we never will We rather live in the fake profile Of our utopian mind We rather live in a happy world Full of peace and love And not live on the edge of reality
