deceived

nothing is as it seems
letting ourselves believe in things that aren't true
we only hurt ourselves in the end
why do we do it?
is it natural to make ourselves believe in things that don't exist?
do we want ourselves to suffer?
we may never find out the answer
but i know it will happen again
i can feel it
deep in my gut
its overwhelming yet welcoming
the ignorance, we seek
if i can hold on to it
maybe i won't hurt anymore...
