It is all lies
what we tell ourselves.
A facade we put on
so we can deal.
But when you aren't looking
when you lease expect it.
The truth appears
shattering the wall you built.
Still you tell yourself
what you think you need.
Ignoring what pulls at you
making yourself settle.
Taking what comes
without trying to change it.
Removing the hastle
smoothering the want.
Agreeing with your mind
slowly killing your heart.
