I Still Pretend

July 21st, 2018


I feel so handicaped 

Because I know I am trapped

I’m stuck in a place

Where I dine and showcase


In a place I have to pretend

And be bound to not offend

I’m stuck in what feels alone

Because I can not do of my mind's own


It’s all about how to please

And to keep everything at ease

Lucky for me I am a pro at pretending

I have perfected blending


I just feel my only friend

Requires more than I intend

If only I were more vocal

 I wouldn’t be contained so local
