Denial

The bars of your cage are of your own doing
You trap yourself without knowing
Or do you?
Some like the comforts of our own confines
The ideas you wish were right in your mind
But aren't true
No need to feel stripped when reality is conflicted
When the ideas you trusted, never existed
You follow?
The empty thoughts protected your world
Of candy cane, gum drops and sugary swirls
But everything is still hollow
We are all exposed, but you stand there naked
Surrounded by illusions that leave loneliness negated
Understand?
Time to find the key to unlock your fate
Time to live your life before it's too late
Before you're washed away like a grain of sand..
