Living Plastic

  Let me go inside

  your mind for just

  a second, little

  girl.

  I want to see how you

  are and how you

  live in this absurd

  world.

  I would like to swim

  around in a puddle of

  your thoughts.

  And understand why its

  so sweet when you kill

  them all.

  What are you doing?

  How are you living?

  Keep playing pretend.

  Try on dresses, put

 on a new face

  act different every day.

  Keep living plastic.

  Always be the innocent

  one.

  Never let them see how

  you are or they might

  hate you too. 

Author's Note

This is the first poem I have written in a while due to writer's block. Sorry it isn't that good.
(I will find a picture soon by the way)
Thank you for any reviews :)

I really liked this. It's a great piece! It is so true how many of us go around masking our true selves and blocking everyone around us. Great poem and a great portrayal of some individuals everyday lives!

WOW! That is very true. The youngest of us put on pretend faces to try and mask who we really are. Well done!!

You have create a very strong poem. To be able to go into another mind would be scary. I like the story in your poem. Easy to hide from the real world. Real world isn't so fun. A strong ending to a excellent poem.
