How I See It

All people have their limits
A person can only take so much abuse
Before they decide to fight back
Before they say ENOUGH!
Now you will see how a person
Completely alone, hating everyone
Sees the world

Honesty, deceit, false love, hatred and lies
All of which are expectations
WAIT!
What is honesty doing on this list?
For that is not what to expect in them.

How would you feel if the "new girl" you liked
Said she loved you?
Of course you would be happy
But the world is not like that
No one comes to you with that kind of honesty!
I've seen this she said it to me!
Only to have a new boyfriend the next day
And not remembering her confession of love
This is called. False Love

You think the world is full of happy endings?
Well Guess again! Deceit only hides behind them
Deceit is what we give everyday
We always pretend to be what we are not
I pretend to be happy which I'm not
Just ask anyone! They'll say I'm a happy guy
News flash! I'm not
Just ask the chef why I'm deceitful
She showed me how to be
By tricking me with the false identity
I now don't open up to anyone at all

You still fail to realize that after what I've been through
I trust no one! I don't let anyone in
I refused to open my heart but I failed at that
And fell in love with someone else
But I knew that it would not last
I was hurt again because of the lack of truth
The lies are what made the love break through my heart
Too many lies, and soo much hatred

Now you know why I look for them
Deceit, False Love, Hatred and Lies
Exist in everyone! That's how I see the world!
Happiness and love make us blind!
And that is
How I See it

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I was in a very dark place when I wrote this one. I've been told it's one of my most powerful pieces. Then again only a few people have seen my portfolio so I'm not sure if I would call this one the strongest. It is one of my best though.
