FALSE PERCEPTIONS
Within the heart of the American Dream
Often occurs visions grandiose,
Unscathed by the looming reality,
Bigger, brighter than life itself,
Conjured in the shadows of desire
By perceptions out of touch with reality,
Spawned by hope and disappointment,
As the dreamer needs, no, they long for something better,
Blocking the pains of reality in exchange for false perceptions
Of a life that is not theirs.
