confused by my feelings
consumed by my thoughts
colors are blending
between my needs and wants
Something feels so real
but it's probably not
almost convinced but
I've never forgotten
Ego and pride
vs authenticity
challenge the truth
and savor the sting
neither escaping
embrace what there is
never anticipating
the pleasure in this
how overwhelming
and humbling too
a day at a time
just a moment too soon
consumed by desire
confused by the truth
but I'm learning to love
as I let go of you
