606. My dreams and my realities

```

When I am compelled to live with dreams,

I try hard to get rid of them,

Soon.

When I am compelled to live with realities,

I try hard to get rid of them,

Soon.

Why?

Why?

Because my dreams

Are nothing but false hopes.

Why?

Why?

Because my realities

Are nothing but barren deserts. ```
