![]() IllusionA Poem by JadeA sense of normalcy is what I gain by living through the voice of others Because if I am me the chaos is ALL there can be. What's right is wrong and what's wrong is right about me Its like Sometimes I'm afraid that 2+2 will equal twenty two and not four The type of illusion that is true but not the truth I am Jade,not the color nor stone But does that make me any less precious or beautiful? And it does, humans have flaws So if beauty is perfection And perfection does not exist Then this ideal of being beautiful is A lie The lie that makes young girls cry and die to reach something that was never attainable in the first place trying to win a race with no end, To be powerful with no friends And It's pitiful And yet I am running I'm tired yet the pressure to go on is still underlying But if i got rid of all my flaws there would be No me. © 2012 JadeReviews
