Poem Artwork

Distorted perceptions
of who I am..
My mind always
changing..
This way..
No..
That way..
Maybe no way
Is the best way..
What do you want?
I don’t know..
What is love?
I am not sure..
Who loves you?
No one
I think..
But I don’t know
the meaning..
How am I to say?
My distorted perceptions..
I think..
I am..
Moving up..
Getting over..
Trying hard..
To find I am
Falling down..
Going fast..
Nothing lasts
Hit by the
reality
Of the delusion
I created..
With my
distorted perceptions..
Of this life..
I am debating..
Can’t believe
My own eyes.
Cannot trust
My own heart
So confused..
Torn apart.
It is death..
I have courted..
Wondering why..
Hope was aborted..
S p o n t a n e o u s l y
It seems...
I am coming apart
at the seams..
I am enclosed
in the dark
But I feel the
warmth of light..
How am I to know..
To sit..
To fight..
Am I to guess?
What’s wrong..
What’s right..
Distorted perceptions..
Makes me wonder..
Keeps me guessing..
As I figure out
The truth..
In this life filled
With misconceptions.
Of these
My
distorted
perceptions.

It flows directly to the lake of knowledge and then on to the sea of imagination breaking waves of questions and making foam of thoughts blown by the winds of imagination and extracting "Perceptions Of Me" again.

"Perceptions Of Me" is a sample of poetical richness and a Poetry´s Art.

I Salute the Author of "Perceptions Of Me".

How cleverly you have made this wonderful piece so accessible.. who among us cannot find him/her self somewhere in this? The pic is a very effective addition to the words.. you have provoked thoughts and moved my sense of self.. seems to me, that's what we all hope to do here.. great stuff! katy.

I am like your picture...what you see on the outside is not whats inside.....like the saying...never judge a book by its cover....and never ever by who loves you...love does not hurt love does not steal..and most of all....love will never tell you a lie..

Love
