Dandelion Lies

I cannot see the skies
Through your dandelion lies
You're spreading them quick as a wildfire

Those dandelion seeds
They float through the breeze
And where they land, the pile grows higher

Tell me please, can't you see
How there's no place for me
In amongst the lies you've spread around

If you want me to stay
Please clear them away
So I stand on the steady ground

Be quick, be aware
Pluck them out of the air
To give me some room for breathing

You cannot keep lies
In these overfilled skies
If you're the person I am to believe in

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
