A World of Lies

Sometimes I wonder why I am here

no ones around no one is near

I was brought into a world of lies

Every ounce of energy goes into a tear

My heart hurts, and yerns to be seen

Sometimes not more can I take

I feel as though life is not worth the pain

Suffering, much greater than gain

Not a day passes I don't try

To tell myself my world is not a lie

Then I stop and take a look around

slowly tears fall to the ground

I see lonliness, the lost of life

A world full of shame and strife

In a world that I was brought into

full of lies, and despair

yes, I agree, there are thorns and bristles as far as the eyes can see...yet there are roses growing here and there if you take the time and look carefully....Mathew, this is a very thought provoking poem, a good write to be sure, and I'm cynical by nature, it takes effort for me to see anything in a positive light some days, but it's not impossible, good things always take an effort to take hold, no?  Good poem, the tone is what it is....be well, poet
