Put Down (Free verse) by SpiffyDoo
Put Down
I never noticed it before
but I am good at fooling myself.
My illusions look so pretty,
I don't ever want to look away.
His arms are strong
and she is happy.
Real life becomes a question.
Everything that I skip
is nothing. I create my own little world.
But for some reason everyone else
can onky see put downs.
Happiness for me is in a costume
hidden far back in the closet.
No one really goes looking for me
I am just there. Here comes
another one. Tainted with the
familar musty smells of the past.
I remember everything now.
The feelings all flood back,
the outside spills.
The feelings were always real,
but the illusions...
