Somebody else


Emotion is effortless, 

Pain is simple to show.

All aspects of us, 

want to shine.

Pretending is cloudy yet 

the sun is hidden behind,

Lies make you fake

But who wants to cry?

It fades away the shame,

Gone so simply,

Yet never forgotten.

A tree covered in leaves,

waiting to be drifted apart .

All good things got to end.

Just pretend.
