Life as life imagined

• by Mark Napier

  
  I want to be
  someone, anyone
  other than me
  a life I live
  through anothers eyes
  as if in a dream
  truth is lie
  and lie can be
  something stronger
  than my reality
  stolen from thought
  and words of another
  false life bought
  with deeds of wonder
  things never done
  but only dreamed of
  respect never won
  hopes high above
  what reality entails
  for one like me
  a past of false trails
  contained in a dream
  reality nevers seemed to happen
  liviing this life
  my life as life imagined
