Misc Poems

I am he as
you are he as
you are me and
we are all together.
I float along the river of green,
Pink and purple haze swirling above my head.

No cares. No worries.
Perfect. Beautiful. Charming. Famous.

Reality brings me back.
Gravity pulls me down.
Make-up picks me back up
And I’m up high again.

I put on my face and head out the door,
Blinded; attacked by the bright lights.

No one cares. No one worries.

No one suspects the girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

From the perspective of a celebrity whose life was ruined by fame.
Once again, the spacing got all broke'd. Much more affective in its original form.

And yes, Beatles. Beatles and drug references.
