perception lies to us

posted this in a thread-
wanted to post here too- thanks



NOT REFERRING TO ANYONE HEREdoh

it is always amazing to me
how self centered and tunnel visioned some people can be

always wrapped up in their sense of dread

only listen to whats in their own head

how can one walk in only their shoes
never giving thought to what their actions do

never address those that they harm
tenuously wrapped in their self pitying arms

telling their story
tho crooked it may be
convincing themselves by the time they tell three

clutching their right to be wrong cuz they're hurt
blaming all else but not willing to work

diligently they create their latest sad story
and with each telling the storys more gory

i see myself in the words above
tho its been a long time and required a shove

now i take my turn on this end
and dont like it here either-
if i only had the chance i'd be the forgiver

why dont we just tell the truth with our lives
rather than spin these boggling delectable lies

seems such a waste and time is so short

for me im old now and id rather comport
my love and affection with ease to secure
a love and true trust that surely endures


wow that was cool i just made that up

grin

i made it up following a visit elsewhere
reading and sighing and having a stare
i was so hideously amazed i couldnt abide
and will not let my reaction gum up me insidesgrin
