Maybe, the Truth
I'm wasted by my apathy
I'm barely even here
My will knows Ambiguity:
A grievance for my peer
I rarely Love my fellow man
Or, practice what I preach
Deception is my biggest fan
My Dreams are out of reach
I live as Epimetheus:
And, run from each mistake
I hide my Lies, like most of us
And, give much less than take
I lust to see my Ego fed
To hope this Lie is true
But, deep inside, I feel I'm dead--
Pretending, just like you...
