Invisible to Beautiful Lies

I've become invisible
to those beautiful lies  
shades of grey that dance  
across the silver screen  
 
we get lost, but stay motionless  
arrows peirce my side,  
but still I soar in indigo skies  

our souls are captured by flashbacks  
of days of the future past  
as we remain unseen, invisible  
to those beautiful lies, that cloud  
the wandering eye...
 
diving into the shallow end  
of a pool, wishing for tomorrow  
but we're crashing headlong  
into today...as swords cut  
through the mists...
 
painting by numbers, masquerading  
as villains and clowns, not making sound  
and we are invisible, to the beautiful lies  
shades of grey, dancing on the silver screen

Author's Note
Alright I am a New Wave Guy...I like the progressiveness of the lyrics of bands from the 80's like Duran Duran, Adam Ant, Joy Division, Yes, and many others...I am a lyrics type poet, they have to have good lyrics to go along with the music...That and My sister Michelle (R.I.P.) one of her favorite bands was Duran Duran..so this poem is kind of tribute to her memory
