The Great Lie.

by Poppy   Mar 15, 2005


Words I need to hear,
Things I want made clear,
Broken in bits, tattered, in shreds.
Ego feeding left me in debts.

I'm as beautiful as I wanna be!
I'm as great as I want you to see.
I am something you'll never be!
I am me!

Numb and cold.
These feelings so old,
Lost and confused,
Light defused.

I am great!
I am wonderful!
I am amazing!
I am me!

Spots cover my ugly face,
Fat ripples from my body,
Hair greasy and messy,
Clumsy and stupid.

I am something!
I am unique!
I am somebody!
I am me!

Lost blue eyes,
Fading smiles,
False from the moment made,
Dying lies on dying lips.

A lie!
That I could ever be something,
Ever be someone besides no one,
Ever be greater then nothing.
