To the lie again

"back to the lie again, every single day"

The world seems beautiful
The blue sky with scattered clouds looks wonderful
Everything is as perfect as it should be out there
For me to fight and get in if I dare!
People's gatherings and false laughter are so appealing
Lots of joy, scenes to see and moments of love for stealing
-----------
Why then..... don't I see anything of that all
Vision blackened!
Why... don't my heart feel anything at all
-----------
Unless its night .. until the world sleeps and no longer bright
When the sky covers with lamentation and throws weeping stars in every part
When laughs dies and gatherings are apart
That's when everything starts to make sense again and closer to my heart
-------------
As voices makes no sense at all
Joy and lights are not in harmony anymore!
When silence overwhelms
And sadness is so appealing
The two collides and condemns
My soul to retreating
Back to its reality
And as it weeps to sleep
It must wake up to the light again
It must wake up to the lie again

it's a good poem, needs some editing in spots...but quite expressive.

we often kid ourselves that everything is fine, when deep down we know better....we just get into that comfortable state of denial.

one spot.."when laughs die..."
