Inspiration

Found

In

Words

Escaped

From

Ones lips…

Breathe me in….
And tell me
charming lies.

Taste that....
For which you long for…

Let us be “one cloth”
Rather than “cut from the same cloth”

Lets pretend….

Because make-believe
Never felt
This good
Before.

It's good to pretend, just be careful reality doesn't wedge itself in and spoil this utopia.

Love the poem! (but I will say from experience as JP was saying, it can have a dark side)

I like to pretend, especially when my reality check bounces

Enjoyed.

You'd be surprised by the pain I can imagine inflicting and receiving.

I really liked these lines, but one must be careful for what they wish for. Great piece.
