Random Poem:

For something..
PerfectLies

For something, to end so painfully but to start so beautifully,
 1
No words to explain it, just images of imagination.
 2
Dreams of what could be, wishes of hope.
 3
Forgotten reality lost forever in another world
 4
Need, desperation, craving for the forbidden
 5
 
 
The want of something never to have
 6
A touch of love, a feeling never to be known.
 7
Created by belief, faith, desire,
 8
Emotion built up over time.
 9
Put together to be crushed, buried forevermore.
 10
 
 
Opening buried boxes, trying to deny the truth,
 11
Failure. Fought passion set free,
 12
Irreversible truths unable to be erased,
 13
Reality unlocked.
 14
