Fakeness

Everyone yells

Everyone shouts

I can’t take it anymore

I need to get out.

This isn’t a home

It’s a jail; it’s got bars

A light through the cracks

Shows me my scars.

You say you don’t know me

You say I don’t feel

But I knew I could

Because the pain was too real.

I stand in front

Head held high

I take your scorn

In the blink of an eye.

My face shows nothing

It’s an empty slate

I’ll be dead before I’m gone

At this rate.

There’s no emotion

In my eyes

How do you know

If I’m willing to try?

No one cares anymore

No one knows who I am

Do I give a shit anymore?

No..my life is a scam.

You say you hate me

How do you think I feel?

I just found out it’s not a dream

My god... It’s for real!
