Illusions of a realist

Thank you Becca for the inspiration.

I rack my brain for answers

to questions I'll never find

take me to the doctor

to tear apart my jumbled mind

You look at me

what do you see?

Is it what you want to see?

Or is it just the lies I let you see?

Don't pretend to know me

I'm as changing as the sea

So many mask adorn my face

I can't keep up the pace

Bring me to reality

This dream I can not take

Give me madness, insanity

shake me until I break

I see the world so differently

than you could ever hope

my gaze it burns so intently

while you struggle just to cope

Don't tell me it'll be alright

I'm tired of your lies

I take my place on moonlit night

I'm tired of your cries
