PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I find myself wandering endlessly in a world
colored only by ever darkening shades of gray
I find it easier to live in the darkness hid from the prying eye's
of self righteous people an their hypocritical lies
hiding from their own sin's by exploiting mine
by speaking with half truths and out right lies

I tell all who ask yes I'm fine
those who pretend to be friends walk away relieved that I've lied
their no longer required to pretend they know how I feel inside
I feel nothing but alone even while standing in a crowd
Ive been falling through the years with nights filled with tears
grieving over dreams that have fell by the way
I've lived my life my way
whether it was right or wrong who's to say

late at night before the next day comes
finding I'm still alone
I sit in the darkness practicing my lie
yes I'm fine
