Perception Poem by natalie ricketts
Perception
for some reason people are drawn to me
they comment on the way i look
like there looking at the cover of a glistning book
but instead of reading the blurbs
to find out whats inside
they just put me on a pedestal
that's very high
then when the illusion of me
is shown for what it is
a false perception
its me that has to fall
and try to land on my feet
never wanted to be an Object of desire
want to feel love, not lust
i want that someone
i can understand and trust
it takes time to really know
yet after that first meet
you all think you know
how i work
what i think
and what makes me happy
i don't second guess people
so don't second guess me?
yet when deciphering the code of love, clear crystals of the soul by the passion, deasire when waits the breath betiding over the lips of silence when bestirs....................thought of love cohered looking from the distance, wonderful queries by the passion, well penned,10+, thanks for sharing
