The Deception

Maybe some of us have an inclination and are somehow aware

That there exists a foredoomed concoction of our cerebral affairs

And that there are others who are passive, masquerading in plain sight

Hiding their cascades of sorrow, behind facades of solace and smiles

Nobody knows of what escapades, that each of us were bequeathed

Yet perhaps we all know that deep down, there exists an alternative

A perplexing ringing, an insatiable itch that just won't go away

And with no concept of clarity, we unjustly gaze towards tomorrow’s hostility

Signs adorn the peripheral landscape, only their messages are wearily obsolete

Perplexities whilst disconcerting, never cause any degree of mystifying disbelief

Even though these are somewhat difficult memories, upon which we regularly reflect

Cursed are we amongst these others, undeservedly aware that the cure is the disease

It is truly with ultimate desperation that we shall endeavour never to forget

So we simply shrug this nuance aside and continually pursue the shadows tail.
