Living in Denial


Life intertwines with love. Neither or can be left alone and expected to prosper. Both bring pain. Both Bring an incomprehensible joyful feeling. Try not to be deceived by false delivers. Do not shelter yourself from pain because pain will makes one stronger. Try to live life with love. Yet I ask, Why are we expected to strive for perfection? Is it because without perfection we fear rejection? 'Living a lie, not realizing in Adam all die.' You're here but you're fake. You portray a image that only you can make. You hide your face with a fake smile. A tactic that will take you bout a mile. You force it to last a while.. Only because, the standards of the world are foul, but yet we all live in denial..
