Trying to impress the people all around me but forgetting what is acting and reality Feeling lost in my pretending world and having trouble finding myself Who could not say when sorrow arrived I did not run the other way? When happiness arrived I came to greet it but where was I when sorrow occupied the space where happiness now stands? I was nowhere I could not be found Lost in my pretending world safe and sound I came about when sorrow fled and happiness came instead The place that I had escaped to, distant The safety it provided, missed The child of imagination, gone
Well I wrote this a bit ago and was going through my notebook when I found this poem and decided to post it.
