real world

dear they.

"in the real world", they say. i don't know what they mean. "it's not like this in the real world. in the real world things are darker and scarier. life isn't fair. people aren't nice." won't, won't, won't, they say.

dear they:

why do they say these things? if this is not the Real world, am i dreaming? when will i reach this mysterious "somewhere other then here"? is it me?

am i too young to have wishes, and dreams? am i too young for them to come true?

"one day", they say. "tomorrow", they say.

i say today.
