Lies

To lose ourselves in yesterdays
To hide our gifts in books and plays
To only exist in anothers eyes
To dress ourselves in untold lies
We each are individually guilty
Running away from our own reality
In drink or drugs, fiction or dreams
Or just in each others needs and means
In each watered down reflection
Upon the pond of self deception
We tell ourselves our truthful lies
To keep the smile in our eyes
Those thin pretences protecting us
From all we cannot encompass
For all we are and all we'll be
Is more than we're designed to see.
