Unveiled (Free verse) by aperfecttool77

I wake every morning living a lie All thoughts and dreams about you by my side My mind is conquered and ravaged by thoughts of something I might never have -And you know this too. I hide the truth behind this veil of tranquility everyone witnesses Only adding to my sorrow -And you know this too. So much I want to say to you, but I lack the words to say it You leave me breathless I???d give it all for one taste of the life I may never live -And you know this too. What about what I want to know? Do you still feel like you once did? Will there ever be a you and me? -And you know this too. I will love you forever and always But never can I tell you this Because I don???t want you to experience this hell that I do. -This, you may never know.

no. but sometimes it takes a hell of a long time for people to accept a different way of thinking. vangogh painted what he physically saw. his medication warped his vision. people were freaked because they didn't see things like that. they wanted...well, macdonalds. everything the same, all the time, even if it does taste like shit. same thing with seaurat and monet, manet, etc. they broke images down into impressions of color. people couldn't deal with the scientififc concept of the optical mix. stand back far enough, and damn those paintings look tight. but they're swishy-swahy, or points of color. new stuff is hard to swallow. what were talking about, any way? bees dying, right?
