Future


A mind and future like a distant sight through the fog

A mask of deceit, showings of false joy

The smile is poisoned but goes unnoticed

A scar runs deep but it’s message is clear

Pain seen as relief, proof of existence

A lack of empathy in the wake of suppressed emotion

A show of strength done under a false guise

All to convince oneself more so then another
