Façade

You can’t see past my phony smile
It has been there quite a while
Plastered there upon my face
Inside feeling such disgrace
Hiding what I feel again
Wanting to just feel alive within
Wondering if you even still care
If you feel the ache of me not being there
I act as if I’m happy, not a care in the world
Though if anyone really cared
It’s all too plain to see
What you did still burns inside of me
Forsaken and isolated throughout the day
Friendless when the night dawns
The Love I thought was so pure
Was just Gold painted bronze
Some days I’m fine
And glad you can smile
Sometimes it fills my mouth with scalding bile
Thinking that you can move on in such an abrupt style
I don’t wanna cry, I don’t wanna feel
Maybe I’ll wake up and see this is not real
Tired of hiding behind my illusion
My heart filled with so much confusion
Though my time with you now seems quite brief
I can’t help but feel relived
And somewhat dejected
We can both move on
Even if it takes me years of reflection
