you act enlightened
yet
you go through life with your eyes wide shut.
you act enlightened
yet
you go through life with your eyes wide shut.
and i will be your plaything no more.
may i have strength in my vulnerability.
break down my walls.
but.
only if we are forever.
set aside all preconceptions of love.
let’s end this now.
while we’re still in love.
at least
this way
we’ll have something real to miss.
make me feel.
i.
dare.
you.
i used to think it was greed that caused war and suffering.
but it’s not.
it is apathy.
the indifference of the masses.
caught in a haze of infatuation.
then.
hit with a reality
that we would rather not face.
i believe that you live in your truth.
and i can hardly persecute you for that.
