Ironical

Rejected Masterpiece

The rejected masterpiece

In all it’s pride

Lies

Thrown away

Staring wide eyed

With dripping mockery

At the haters

Who fail the task

To lessen

It’s worth

Cheats

Why do we always cheat ourselves?

Why can’t we accept things the way they are?

Why do we try to change the truth?

Why can’t we be us?

Why the deception?

Why the action?

Why do we keep explaining ourselves again and again?

Why are we so desperate not to lose?

Why do we compete without reason?

Why do we live without passion?

Why do we act unaffected?

Why do we lie against our own good?

Why can’t we live by our rules?

Why don’t we see that it’s not getting us anywhere?

Why?

Why don’t we understand that we are killing ourselves?
