Thrilling

I'm trying - the sound of a lie,
Quickly cutting through the air,
Perception lost - an alibi,
Nightmares of being unaware,

Every day a new truth is told,
A passerby on the street of pain,
Just waiting for a story to unfold,
Running away is now labeled "sane"

I'm yours - an honest phrase to trust,
Melting away the barriers placed,
Obsession - the new form of lust,
Tempting fear to turn into waste,

Ever-changing is this life we know,
Dark with a hint of light instilling,
In our hearts, it has lit a glow,
Our minds interpret it as: thrilling...
