Their eyes look but they do not see
They seem to smile but they are not happy
They pretend while their heart saddens
Their body fakes while their soul suffers
While their dream is like a mirage
Seen only from the distance
While to hold on hope is like to kayak,
Down a wild rapid in a rocky valley
When it’s all tempest, ruggedness
While they walk the journey of life
Where there is no safe quarter like a yacht,
They chose to be in blackout
Numb
Disconnected
Unplugged
In a world of blackout
Cheers…cheers

Sad notes about life, but true there are moments that we choose a different world... in a world of blackout! Well penned, a 10.
