My denial
of reality
is my beauty,
but also
my
disappointment
in life.

I expect
the perfection
to surpass
every thing,
every breathe
we take.

I dream,
and fall,
into deception.

I've lived up
to your
expectation,
But continue
to decieve
myself.

HEY!! Do I know you?? Have we met?? Are you me?? LOL! I was asking because this is how I am. I refuse to accept what others see as reality. This one hit the target nicely with its truth. Thanks for the read.

 Don't gain my affections and cover my eyes. In blindness I will only swing harder.
