Living a lie…

To you, “normal” one

I am willing to lend an ear

And to your fooling sun

I will succumb with no fear

I will listen to your stubborn believes

Might as well leave a place to doubt

And watch my reason as it leaves

Erased by your clichés as they sprout

I am willing to take your hand

And follow your steps like a robot

Watch all my dreams fade in the sand

And for a selfish success only plot

But if ever, I invite you in

To a realm of darkest misery

Will you consent to taste my sin?

Or choose to desert this leper me

Will you welcome in rivers of tears?

Or choose to wear a mask and deceive?

Will you follow me and defy your fears?

Or insist on the futilities you must achieve?

And what might the cause of refusal be?

Dread of all change and of the dark?

Or worry over reputation and society?

May be just the thought of a life so stark?

But do you know, dear “normal”,

That you have grown to live a lie?

And when revealed you will falter

Like a dead raven from the sky…
