Delusions Poem


What?

That never happened.

You have an overactive imagination.

Too young at the time and impressionable.

You are being mean for even thinking I could do it.

I would never.

***

Oh, it was recent?

You misunderstood the situation.

You were too sick during the time to realize what was happening.

Or it was for a totally justified reason.

I cannot believe you could think I could be so selfish.

I would never.

***

You have evidence or a witness?

You know what, you are the problem.

It was done in response to how you treated me.

Complete self defense and you are the one truly at fault.

You forced me to act this way.

I would never.

***

Oh how I wish sometimes that I could hold delusions as strong as you.

Where insight is drowned screaming until you believe those thoughts yourself.

Where I can look into your eyes and see the light of sincerity where it is not meant to burn.

So I could be as self assured and confident as you.

Able to ignore the burden of fault as it mounts upon my head like stones.

But has it made you actually happy?
