In the mirror of a nightmare

Isn't that hilarious? Sometimes you forget that you’re not living in a dream, until one day something pushes you down the stairs and leaves you broken and bleeding on the floor.

Once you open your eyes and see reality you realize that actually it wasn’t a dream but a nightmare, just because you thought those eternal blue, acid and tearing drops couldn’t touch you because they were falling outside your door even though you were keeping under an umbrella while you were walking down the street on the boulevard of broken dreams (yeah like the song), doesn’t mean it couldn’t hurt you.

At the beginning you just can’t believe it, that ain’t what you wanna hear, right? You deny it again and again, trying to forget what you already know, yelling “it’s a lie!” Until you accept it; but the idea is still messing up with your mind and driving you nuts.


Couldn’t believe you were so naïve, so hearted and you believed hope springs eternal so that you become the most stupid human being in the world; well at least you feel it ‘cause deep inside you know you’ve been betrayed, and guess by whom? By yourself.


And there you are, lying on the floor, with your broken bones, crying out your tears while your pride’s voice is whispering “One day you’ll wake up and everything’s gonna be alright, there’s always hope”.


Suddenly, your intuition makes you open your eyes, and guess what!: There’s a light dancing and the end of the corridor inviting you to come closer, the same light you’ve seen every time you were in such circumstances and you didn’t touch it, because you preferred the cold and lonely embrace of the shadows and the rain.


You don’t hurry ‘cause you know that light is not for free, it has a high and painful cost; you have to choose between continuing living this nightmare or being released from the attachment that becomes a ball and a chain in your life. Both, you will suffer.


This time will be different, I choose being released, it doesn’t matter how much it will hurt, I’m gonna make every effort to win this battle.


Although I’m tired of this crazy game, it’s time to turn the page, once more. And the nightmare just fades away…
