Genuine Sincerity?
“loved ones, your feelings determine mine”
this is what my voice proclaims
but does my heart truly sympathize?
i encourage you to confide in me
but is just it to reciprocate my ego?
i stand under the rain you bring into being
but aren’t i just shedding crocodile tears?
i sit at the edge of the earth for your happiness
but is it solely out of obligation?
i am good to you
but can i be without the public eye?
i notice you waiting for the day my actions correspond with my words
but if my words lack genuineness
please do not stand by.
-I am good to you for the benefit of my reputation
