Make Believe

Make believe isn't just for children...

I make believe

When you confess your love

That it's my face

you see in the stars

lighting up the sky above

 

I make believe 

when she calls

That you're just friends

They're rumors

Whispers offered with no proof

 

I make believe

when we wake up 

That our reality

is my nightmare

And that my dreams will come true

 

I make believe

When you speak

That what you say is true

so that every night is justified

when I come home to you.

"lighting the sky up above" try changing this to "lighting up the sky above" I think youll find it flows better and "That your just friends"..."your" there should be "you're" as in "you are". This piece was sad and left me feeling sorry for the poor woman. She should take a stand and lose that jerk and find her a good man! lol Oh, gosh, be careful, somone will think it's an autobiographical piece and you'll have lovelorn men beating down the doors of your page! ;o)

A interesting poem. Make believe left me feeling empty. It is funny how we know something is good. And when it is not so good. Description and flow of poem was excellent. Thank you.
