Reality

Staring at the stars so deeply Enchanted by the lights so quickly I forget illusions become necessity Reality is what you want to see I see flowers blooming in the night I hear sounds of birds take flight I feel something isn't right But life is but lessons learned And each time I think I've earned I'm led to believe I just got burned I can't be what you want me to be I won't be dictated by normalcy I just want to be me, exclusively But you don't understand me You never knew MY history Didn't take the time to be real You never understood what it is to feel I am ME I am what you see I am what I need to be I am "ME"
