Slow Motion In A Dream

Im a simple man
I want simple things
I build my life
around simplicity
Yet it gets complicated
Like running slow motion in a dream
when they tell you to be something
you dont want to be

But,I dont wear that mask
because I am not afraid
I am who I am
I would'nt hide it for a thing
Some say thats my weakness
believe me its my strength
Im just passing through this world
no one will remember me

You see thats the craziest thing. Do you or do you not want to be remembered. My Biggest fear is passing through life unremembered. I pray daily I do something I can be remembered for. I strive for it. I want it, I NEED IT!! ][ ][

this was beautiful, straight to the point, although i would also agree with carlos because people will remember you even if you think you are passing through the world.

Yes, sometimes it is the voices outside our heads out to get us! Being face naked in society in itself complicates things!I agree with Carlos tho-cause I wondered if you had left. So there! A:D.

A fantastic poem. I would only change the last line as I believe you're likely to be remembered for being yourself than hiding behind a mask.

...true, but at least if you do it right, some people will spend a lifetime trying to forget you...
