Facade

I may smile, I may laugh, I may go through the motions.

But I am using a facade to hide my real emotions.

I use the facade to fool those that I can't confide to.

I may stand up high and look proud.

But the truth is that I am knee deep in the waters of despair behind my shroud.

I am a fooler.

A liar.

An actress.

A deceiver.

A hider.

Behind this facade is me.

The me that you may never see.

In this world of my facade,

I swim in these deep waters,

these dark waters.

My only fear is that I may someday drown.

If I do, then nobody will ever find the life behind my fascade.

I may smile,

I may laugh,

I may go through the motions.

But I am using the facade to hide my real emotions.

I have my facade.

I will wear it as I please.
