Contrived Perception

Torn on how to alleviate this tension

Afflicting the integrity of my resolve

Tempted by the mere fantasy

Tantalizing my every fiber of being 

Stuck and reminiscing distraction

Exalted fascination fixated internally

Heralding the rapture from dissonance

Lofty aspirations instigate condemnation

In veritas, I feel compelled

Held back by constraints self-imposed

Resisting the key to unbind

Still, I cannot accept manifest fanaticism

Often, expectations exceed reality

Gambles rarely turn a profit

So I force myself to believe

Tearing away from curiosity

Contriving a dulled outlook

Monochromatic perception

Nuances and differences fade

Leaving nothing to dwell
