Make-Believe Pie






Why even try to explain, its insane 
when I take a sneak peak at my life,     
I often feel cloned and unreal.       
Reality smacks and I'm under attack  
I dream and I dream like a dope,  
savoring slices of make-believe pie.

Dear Rose, What a powerful read. I believe many of us feel that way from time to time. I loved your title expressions of emotions and the metaphor of the mudpie. Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Hi, Rose. It's only a nasty dream. Sometimes we do go down to the unreal. But you can write wonderful poems.

I know sometimes I choose a lovely daydream over painful reality

Ahhh, I resonate with this completely and really agree with you on the fact that life can sometimes be really insane! It often feels surreal and that clone thing is so true.. when reality takes all of our time and pulls out of our peaceful dreams ~ you've such an incredible way with words, beautiful Rose and even with such powerfully impactful writes, your quill never loses its elegance.. I love those last two lines which depict how our hearts yearn to savour every moment! Sending love & hugs ~
