Justa Poet Poet Rhyme

Denial

For years I have lived in denial.
Hiding from things I do not completely understand.
Denial is something that you might have unplanned.
But denial and me go hand in hand.
I drift away into Neverland.
To ignore my problems at hand.
My mind has become inland, and disbanded.
My heart is being high demanded.
Oh, how I wish my perfect life never ended.
