Self-deception

Cannot surpass the speed of this thought,

Making me struggle to breathe in fully.

Fought but got caught up in the knot of this plot,

Ever tempting me with sweet visions so obscurely…

But the shadows are always there.

Silent and present in all the steps I’ll ever take,

Wishing to be innocent and blissfully unaware

of this dream. Can’t do nothing but be awake,

             for the dawn of this mistake

             that’ll forever make my soul ache,

             this thought process I REALLY should break,

             but I’m already too comfortable being fake.

Interestingly accurate description of being caught in a deception and not coming out of it. The scheme is also really good.

Thank you very much Justin :)

Superbly said, true or not, Ana B. On and offline there are few genuine saints and those who would adamantly deny my supposition might have their own problems! Stand up and be counted, people! Think this: if you can create the situations so many write about, what then the purity of their mind?

You write in so many ways, my friend - you cover so many topics, especially.. Who knows what anyone's whole truth and nothing but.. really is.

[Ana B.]

Thank you for the beautiful words my dear. The purity of the mind is easily swayed by the breeze of those shadows :D Thank you so much for stopping by my friend))
Hugs!!
