What was once my reality is now only a fantasy

Every day life just doesn't feel real I wake up to a nightmare every morning What was once my reality is now only a mere fantasy Every day I wake up forcing a smile upon my face The true happiness I feel is when you visit in my dreams They feel so real to me I wake up with a broken heart because you're no longer here with me *What was once my reality is now only a fantasy It hurts that what was once real is only available when I dream Life won't ever be the same What was once my reality is now only a fantasy* These sunny days feel so dark and cloudy Your smile is the sunshine I want to feel beating on my face I'd give anything to sit with you and hear your laugh again *What was once my reality is now only a fantasy It hurts that what was once real is only available when I dream Life won't ever be the same What was once my reality is now only a fantasy* You led me through life and taught me so many things But now I'm often scared though I'm not sure what I have to fear I don't know what could be worse than losing you ​*What was once my reality is now only a fantasy It hurts that what was once real is only available when I dream Life won't ever be the same What was once my reality is now only a fantasy* - Originally Written by Elizabeth C.
