[hometext] => Beloved, did you think that this was real?
[bodytext] => Wide eyed, in awed disbelief Don’t believe what can be seen It’s just a fragment of imagination Haunting your waking dreams So sleep tight, darling dear The world outside can’t touch you When you’re locked within your mind Disdainful shock and skepticism Beloved, did you think that this was real? It’s the beauty of the human mind Surfaced secrets tell plenty about the soul But you can’t erase what’s spilt in ink And you have to know this is all half truths You’re the one who wrote this in your psyche Don’t condemn the actors, charge the author They were only doing their part To make your vision more then a mere travesty And to bring new life and significance To this once mediocre script They must have done an exceptional job You bought in to your own load of crap You’ve made your point, darling one The world is ever so susceptible to the power of insinuation And it doesn’t exclude the so-called high and mighty Both the prominent and the and nonentity are going to fall Because in the end, we’re all extraordinarily alike Its humanity at its best and human pride at it’s worst The pedestals we’ve work so hard to erect Will crumble in the blink of an eye And no one is protected, my dearest love When judgment day roles around So wake up and find a new frame of mind You’re not everything you’ve alleged to be And at the moment, you’ve no claim to fame So call “cut” on this ludicrous scene And just let us all live our lives in peace [comments] => 0 [counter] => 168 [topic] => 43 [informant] => NothingMoreNothingLess [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
