Lucy meets distortion
The days go on, the months pass by and I have lived
to my best ability, tried, knocked on each door to find
what more I could give,
to not be jaded, to not grow weary, to always have
that fresh smile, brighten someone's day, to be a source
of hope when that is what the world needs, I have tried,
tried again and again, even to doors that slam, to those who spit
and shame me, called me deluded, name calling never bothered me ... ...
did it? For now I wonder if I had simply buried it deep down, in the recesses
of my mind, there is a stranger talking back, of what rubbish I have
given to that well of hope, hope of what? The footsteps I believed
were unwavering because I was on solid grounds have begun
to sink, sink holes, putrid gases and I find my other self with a sneer,
a scowl, a grin that mocks, I am here with you she tells me,
he tells, me, who is this me? And it seems that every thing I
have ever done was simply just trying to convince myself
that the well was eternal.
