More than fiction

More than fiction

A Poem by Vertigo

A city angel
Perhaps
If you saw me at the right angle
A likeness
Of a debased truth
My life is fiction 
But what is the reality
Other than what we  perceive?
What do I breathe
Other than stale air?
I am silent
In all respects but one...

And within every vow that stands
Nothing is written in stone

I believe in rights of passage
And in love
Even when the world seems colorless

Indeed, the truth as we each know it stems from our own perception, very true!

Nothing is ever writen in stone! ah! But it is Death is. I like this thought this was wonderfully written.
