Perception isn't Reality
February 25, 2013
People see what they want to see.
Not what's true.
Perception isn't reality.
Looks are decieving.
Don't always trust
What you see.
People see me as carefree.
Just some girl
Who doesn't care about anything.
But if you were to look
close enough, you would see
my many flaws and scars.
In some cases,
What you see is what you get
but not many.
Some people see me as
hyper,loud, and immature
but it's all a lie.
Yes, I act that way sometimes
but that's not even close
to what I feel on the inside.
You think I have it all figured out
but that's not true either,
my mind's a jungle gym of thoughts and ideas
Ikeep who I am
a secret from everyone
so yes, your perception of me is a LIE.
