the problem with pretending

this semblance to a normal
restive life is really
all i could manage
the truth was much more fun
why didn't anyone tell me
that before i lived a lie?

the problem with pretending
is that if you do it for long
enough you start to believe it
yourself and lose all sense
of who you really are

my but words come at a rapid rate
try me again later
i'll be sure to have more to say
