How about let's pretend
That none of this is real.
We can escape
In our own world.
Let's care only for how we feel.
Why would you want to live
In a place where there
Is never a reason to smile?
Who wouldn't take the chance
To get away for a while?
I wrote this poem in American Literature class during the introduction to the Era of Realism. It was all incredibly depressing. Well written, but really boringly sad.
