"Not so simple"

Since youth
Withheld from truth,
Told to follow our dreams,
Take thorough notes about the hoax that happens
While drooling on the seams then,
Everything will make sense,
We’ll be at our extreme best,
Making dollars,
Being close friends with success,
Made it sound so stress free,
We’re re told
Possible to have it all,
Every single thing our cerebellum draws,
Truly remain obsessed
Scenes seen in our head,
What's next
You wake up
Alarms rage and the Sun comes,
Expected to part your temple from the cotton cloud pillow,
Wipe your eyes and float
from the stars your toes touched
before the recurring presence of daylight
Sit up right
Take what life lays on again.
