All but a lie

In the blanket of darkness I lie

Cocooned and warm from the cold

I wonder why

Longing for shelter and

Desperate for shield

From the bright and almost sickening feeling of happiness

I lay, untrue to my nature,

Believing in the lie; like everybody else

I realise, brightness is a lure

And happiness just a mirage

A sickening play on god’s part

Who sits back and laughs

Looking at us, reaching out for something

That never existed

It’s all but a lie.
