[bodytext] => Early on we all become players Slowly, but surely, we master our roles Experts we become at covering the truth Why, we can fool anyone with our honest lies Always trying to please the whole world I'm about to collapse, Nearing breakdown Can't lead this lifestyle anymore Won't take part in this wretched game any longer Try your absolute best, and keep others at a distance Never let them see what you really are Don't let them destroy those pretty little walls Those pretty little walls of isolation Always trying to please the whole world I'm about to collapse, Nearing breakdown Can't lead this lifestyle anymore Won't take part in this wretched game any longer Longing for when everything was so very simple Bittersweet tears threatening to overflow It just sits there and mocks you 'till your happiness is gone I'm losing my mind to the preposterous game Always trying to please the whole world I'm about to collapse, Nearing breakdown Can't lead this lifestyle anymore Won't take part in this wretched game any longer So sick of this all or nothing philosophy It just can't be the only path to follow Yearning to dauntlessly try new things Things that I know would never end up picture perfect Always trying to please the whole world I'm about to collapse, Nearing breakdown Can't lead this lifestyle anymore Won't take part in this wretched game any longer It's never satisfied, so don't expect any praises You'll live your whole life noting only imperfections It has a great hold on you, it'll never retract its claws Do you now realize that you've fallen vitim to its wicked web Always trying to please the whole world I'm about to collapse, Nearing breakdown Can't lead this lifestyle anymore Won't take part in this wretched game any longer Have to take back what the game has stolen Finally escaping its sickening grip Starting all over with these broken pieces Now I see clearly what's there for me Now I'm gonna see the whole world I won't go back, you can't break me down again Leading a brand new lifestyle now By taking part of something so wondrously grand [comments] => 0 [counter] => 151 [topic] => 21 [informant] => Avyna [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
