reality lies indistinct in cloudy confusion

what is indecipherable from what is not

fact and fiction in madnesses intermingle

reason is assaulted, submits to incredulity

my mind cannot see truth from falsehood

tears drown joy, it dissolves as a phantom

blown aside like a mist in the morning sun

and I, unable to determine sand from stone

weep where smiles may more honest shine
