    Suzy fucking sunshine
    That's me
    Always happy
    Always laughing
    I need to be
    To stop the fear
    From engulfing my soul

    I'm a big mirage
    None of this is real
    Well maybe it is but giganticized
    I don't know anymore

    I left home to find myself
    Just got lost a little more
    In the mystery of my own mind
    Thought this would be differant
    That all I needed was a change
    It worked for awhile
    And now I'm back to zero

    You can't run from pain
    Fated meetings of despair will find you
    Drinking putrid cocktails
    Can only restrain it for so long
    Shaky voice calmly points
    Towards some moot topic
    The mating ritual of slugs
    Or some other bullshit thing
    I know nothing about
    And care even less

    Is there peace of mind in solitude
    I certainly pray these things
    Although I don't believe in god
    Making me something of a hypocrite
    I also don't believe in love
    Perhaps for a few
    But mostly it is a self induced delusion
    A trap of fantasy
    That burns everyone at some point
    The truly faithful more than the rest

    Heartache can not deture them from trying
    Every sneaky pause for their cause
    I was one of these
    And now it's all over
    My face is cracking
    My eyes are unstable
    I am terrified
    This whole pristine act will crumble
    And everyone will know
    What deception really means

    The more I read this the more I like it. different things keep popping up at me. Waht a long strange trip it is eh? Just be true to yourself and you and you will never go too wrong.

    Inevitably you will find yourself turned from these dark woods, back to the Path from whence you stumbled... yet it may be remarked: some of us make new Paths by stumbling, that others may later carry on.

    This poem displays a truth a lot of people feel but never want to admit to feeling
