You see what you want to see
While all the world sees different

You hear what you want to hear
Afraid to listen well
For you are well underneath her spell

The hurt and lies mean nothing
What she has done to you vanishes

You feel what you choose to feel
Always believing in her love

You believe you are strong and right
Doing what is best

But all around and up above
The world sees a different you

One that is afraid to face the truth
She is not what she appears
Her love is a game

An act that you choose to believe in
For you have a fear of open eyes
So you live in an utopian reality

Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go.

Hmmm...change that "she" to a "he" and you might just as well be admonishing me...sometimes it's just so hard to wake up.
Well said, cuddlez!

====================

This is not simply about a (she).........but it could be taken in all that passes our lives........

Alot of us fear to open their eyes widly and see the world for that it is or not......

Thank you for sharing such a touching read.....

It's only me.......only me
I hope that would suffice eternally

...what magnificent truth you reveal in your rhyme...

"...don't ever stop loving, don't ever stop believing, don't ever stop dreaming your dreams..."
Warmly...
