[hometext] => If the truth is always this ugly I'd rather live in lies.
[bodytext] => Beautify me wth with lies, darling.
I saw the truth and it hurt too much
If all of actuality is this ugly
I'd rather breathe in delusions
So paint me a fake tableau
to distract my dying eyes
Sew me a quilt to cover what's real
to solidify my denial...
Beautify me with lies, darling.
You know it's all I desire
The blinding lights, they pierce me
But never give a reason for the pain
I crave for the shadows to obscure it all
Disconnect me from the facts
I wish I could hurt and not feel remorse
I want to live amongst deceit...
I long to be a ghost
I long to dwell in lies
Beautify me....

Words of grief and despair... Sometimes your dreams are the best place to find shelter..even when you know you're dreaming.
Chillingly beautiful!

PERFECT, couldn't sum it up better myself, what a fantastic poem, that's why i live internally in darkness, where my truth lies hidden from the world. If this world is heaven i would rather live in hell. Brilliant.

| Lies are beautiful indeed... I too long to swim in its comforting embrace.. but of what costs and of such consequence... anyway a haunting and lilting write. A slightly depressing vision but nice! ...perchance truth is of more ardent temper and a truer mirror. |

No kiss tastes as sweet as the kiss of a lie.....
None is as bitter as that of the truth.
I definately loved this one and that ISNT a lie.

| What can I say more that what's already said, it is not just a perfect poem, but you are so true and undisguised. You don't need to be beautified, you are the most beautiful person on earth. |

this was awesome. lies do sometimes seem to make things better but in the end they end up making it worse. the way you put this into perspective was extraordinary, i must read it again. im going to read more of your writing because if it is anything like this, it will be truly amazing.

Happy 100th! Sorry couldn't help myself - that 99 looked so, well..... incomplete.
Aside from adding to your reader tally, let me just add to the positive comments. A good write, and an enjoyable read, about a place and a state of mind we all visit, if not dream of inhabiting. Reality is the camera, delusion is the filter.
Now that's my kind of picture.
