WHAT I SEE

Contributed by XXXsilvervoodooXXX on Thursday, 27th March 2003 @ 04:25:00 AM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



Openly I'm going to finally evalute everything I see,
and to be honest I'll admit, it actually sickens me.
One mimics the other, while the other mimics back,
one steps out of line and the rest of you attack.
She is a horrible mother, she spanks her little child,
he must be cheating, you checked the last number dialed.
Call the entire town, "Did you hear the latest news?"
"Ray got out of jail and they found Mary abused!"
Walking with glaring eyes in the backs of your heads,
couldn't miss one look, or something that was said.
Half of you don't have a clue what you should believe,
some dance in a circle, others worship on their knees.
You love a lot of things, but you only say what you like,
your smile lasts all day, but tears fulfill your night.
I am the greatest, I am better than the rest of you,
I despise myself, damn I wish that I was like you.
I blame my problems on how my parents raised me,
they're the reason this is who I've turned out to be.
Oh my god I think my son might be smoking pot,
and from your own experience you know he has to stop.
Then there are the few of you that see past this reality,
inside you know the truth, but you keep it buried deep.
In your room you practice and create a whole new world,
but still you are hesitant to share what you've learned.
No one will suspect me if I blame my best friend,
PEOPLE WAKE UP, YOU'RE COMING TO AN END.
Couldn't be me she's talking about, I know I'm not like that,
but as you think about it closer, you know that it's a fact.
Otherwise you don't understand, you took it the wrong way,
to you this is meaningless, simple words on a page.
One or two might find the truth, for them it will hit home,
in your head you will know that you really aren't alone.
So now you are a part of the life that I see,
every now and then I will continue to show me.
To those of you who understand, thank you for your time,
for those of you who can't, I hope you liked the ryhme.
