Fake smile

That smile isn’t real...... none of them were.

If I ever smile it’s because I find enjoyment in something, but it never lasts long.

If I’m lucky it’ll last for a week, before it fades into nothing.

As a child, I was the opposite of who I am now, but the older I got the more it all just disappeared.

Now, I live a life following a thin line between heaven and hell, and live my life between what’s dark and what’s light.

I can still feel emotions like everyone else, but it always goes back to “meh”

No thoughts run through my mind anymore, so my emotions are created by whatever’s in front of me.

Those pictures on Facebook, yeah sure I smiled, but I never meant it.

I had a blast out on the water, with my rod in my hand and my two fish on my line, if you wanted to see me smile that would’ve been the best time.

I had to lie to everyone throughout my life, because I didn’t want them to know the real me.

But, later on I soon told some people, and they never even noticed.

That the one who they thought was being controlled, was actually the one who was in control.

My life is a joke, never meant to be taken seriously, every word that I say is nothing more than the wind.

For those who don’t know me try not to be bold, for if you knew who I was you’ll soon find out that I can be quite cold....

Author's Note
I’m not the poetic type so any rhyming in there just came out of nowhere. But, aside from that, I can’t say where this came from, all I can say is that I needed to say that for a while. If there are any problems you as readers may have, feel free to leave comments I’ll get back to them soon
