Lingering Ponder

Isn't it funny how life works?
Isn't it strange?
The lies, the deceit; the image we are to upkeep
You tell me, who is real; who is fake
You tell me what is truly worth the stake
What is this life?
What is this love?
What is the end we all speak and dream of?
Peace
Forgiveness
Happiness
Does any of it truly exist?
Keep searching
Keep Watching
Keep running
Keep switching out 
The truth with the lies
The hope that hides
So deep inside
