I think of reality
As an Illusion.
It's just that illusions shatter
At the end of the day
It's staying alive that matters
Yes, you can push me around
And you can have your fun
But have you any idea
The strength it takes me
Not to push you back harder
Or what courage goes into
Not running from you farther
The truths that you tell me
And the lies I hear
They come to you so easily
So ordinary yet out of the blue
You think that i don't know
That you take me for a fool
And I feel disgusted at myself
Everytime i prove you true
So it's just as well
That my world is an illusion
'Cus the realities you spin
Play havoc with my emotions
It's just as well
That i know Truth's a lie
Because my numb life has turned
Into a screaming question -
"WHY"???

i hear a song juxtaposed with rap..think about selling it to some singer..or music label..
apart from that..its an improvement from your other old writings
I picked up two words outta a song....illusion and dream and wrote what came to me about them...... will put the second one soon........and thanks
first and foremost, love the new blog, love the blog description:)
when I first read the poem i thought i liked the first half better, but now I'm confused, each half has lines that stand out. And if you put in a little more effort, you can actually start a new genre called the rap-poetry:) good work.
thank u.......and i shall try my best :)
Fascinating. This comes across to me as being about a destructive relationship and packs quite a punch. The style is unusual but I think it works well.
This illusion is so real all over the world. Beautiful write :)
I really like the look of your blog. I've been browsing through a lot of poetry today and yours is the first I wanted to stop and read twice. Well done.
I agree that this reads like a song. It's a song of the lovelorn and for the lovelorn. It speaks to many. Yes, well done!
beautiful delivery of life's illusions..
love your entry,
welcome and happy Rally.
Love it. Great flow. Nice page too.

reality is illusion....i like the poem, an awesome read, a beauty :)
Nice work.
Humanity is reality
and
Insanity is humanity
Takes a lot of strength not to tear into those who think you a fool. Great poem $unshine of the Moon. I enjoyed it greatly.
The Lonely Recluse.
Paradoxical first four lines. True from the heart, I reckon.
Works on several levels, bitter and angry, fatalistic even spiritual - well written...
