Wake Up If You Can Poem by Arno Le Roux

Don't ever miss a ticketed ride the quiet reality train to sleep
Fight her speedy coaches not and blink long your sanity to keep

Too many believe too soon the worry waking hours are for real
Hard to escape the feel but sunny rays are sent here to steal

To make believe what we hear and see, love and taste and own
Wake is merely many dreams when on the darker side of town

From there we look in awe the colours feels and smells
The greatest lies taste sweeter here this plain where all pain dwells

Dream on poor soul accustomed to so many heartaches grow
It's only human flaw to care a few minutes past your now

Real is what you grow into while you effortlessly choose
And later as you climb aboard a full train again to loose

Reality waiting patiently and presents again here soon
Is up to you tonight to swap your version for the moon
