A Fallacy

Tue, 04/30/2019 - 01:48 -- cmf22

I feel happy at the moment.

But I think it’s like a high, or a rush

So

When will my high

Come back down?

I don’t want to be there for that

I don’t want it to happen

But this right here is a fallacy...

Isn’t it?

Like a false hope that it’s all fine now

And my smile feels automatic now

It feels fake

I think I’m just smiling because it’s what I’m used to

My smile fades just as quickly as it came

Not every time

But most of the time

I feel fake

I feel stupid

I feel like I’m not right
