welcome to ikea

we went to ikea

 living the dream

 (it was packed)

 emptying out our wallets

there came the faintest scent

 loves first disappointment

was it you

 was it me

 was it just a fleeting fantasy

 transient dreams

 so different to reality

welcome to ikea.

When you go shopping - see the display -
dream.
Imagine.
Pay the fee.
Return home -
Reality!
Was it what you dreamt it would be?
