Freedom, Fuel The Lie

There are fragments of

a life that I can see

They are within my reach

and yet beyond my grasp

I can hear it though

when I take a breath

The ocean waves

colliding against the beach

The seagulls, with their song

calls to me in the distance

I can almost feel the

sand between my toes

The sky is a beautiful

shade of blue

It seems to scream

to me

Then it quiets

as if to tease me

I am trapped in

this illusion of hope

I don’t care though

because I want the lie

Nothing will bar

my path to this falsehood

It is the only

thing worth

dreaming about

I know that I will

wake soon

Any instance of freedom

and the false face of it gone

Call to me again

please!

Give me the escape

of the lie

It is better than any

truth
