Up The Wall

Further and further
Such thoughts do crawl,
Slowly, ever driven
Right up the wall

The craziest things
Are they real or fake,
When words are spoken
Or a picture, take

These days, these days
How can one tell,
Who is not on your side
Who is wishing you well

Who is behind there
Or what, if the case,
Be hiding from sight
Of a familiar face

This drives me mad
And this eats me away,
Too many questions 
We must ask today...

answers are confusing, rarely comes the truth. Now we're left longing for the days of our youth.
