You portray as if the world exists without me,
conveniently ignoring my presence,
showing your bright smile
at every occasion life present,
or is that a veil that you are wearing
to wane the thoughts from your mind,
and more you pretentiously demonstrate the intent,
the more I am convinced it is a disguise,
the doltish move of a desperate heart,
but amidst all this chaos you must know
I will survive
and thrive to find the true north
for my desirous soul
a new beginning,
my newfound paradise
