My eyes have opened up,
To a bright new light.
To things that i've either never seen before,
Or things for which i have lost sight.
I realize for the last 3 years,
I've been living a lie.
I was walking on earth,
But long ago i had died.
People arent who i thought,
They took off their masks.
Now i see the people who i thought were real,
Were made of plastic.
Its a shock of reality,
That i can not bare.
How could i be this blind,
When all the signs were there?
I cant believe i was so bad off,
That i was living in my own little world.
I'd prefer my old life better,
Go back to being that sad little gurl.
But what can i do?
The medicine does what it can,
I guess its not it's fault,
That you werent who i thought,
you were in the end.

The trick in life is learning how to make the bad things inspire the good. or some other nice saying like that. This is a very good poem, keep them coming

Hey. This was a great poem. Your ideas were expressed so well. Like I've said before, reality bites. But ya know what? You're really better off seeing people without their masks and taking off your own. Again, great poem..

Finding the truth may hurt but at least it's the start of a better life. Might not feel like it right now, but it will. Remember, what doesn't kill us makes us stronger. thanks for shring this
