You wear your innocence like wallpaper <br />Disguising the truth that can only turn to vapor <br />Don’t tell me that I’m wrong <br />Your instinct can’t be that strong <br /> <br />Distractions scatter across an endless sea <br />Destinations chosen with a sense of hypocrisy <br />Don’t tell me that I’m wrong <br />Thoughtless verbiage thrown where it don’t belong <br /> <br />Your faceless smile evokes but a shadow in the mirror <br />Who am I, but the chosen one, to lead the cheer <br />Don’t tell me that I’m wrong <br />It wasn’t me who chose to sing this song <br /> <br />Your corruption of the awful truth <br />As careful words slip through a broken tooth <br />Don’t tell me that I’m wrong <br />I knew before you knew, you wouldn’t be here long<br /><br />Alfred Ramos<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/don-t-tell-me-that-i-m-wrong/
