PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Living a false life is what I do

Never able to tell the ones you love

What you’re really about

Hiding my emotions

Hiding my every thought

If they knew what I did

What would they say?

How could they know?

I’ve done the opposite of everything I stand for

My friends think I’m bad

My family thinks I’m good

Who’s right? I don’t know

Who knows the truth? I wonder if even I know

A perfect child, is what I’ve been told

A perfect child is what I strive to be

How can I be perfect and do what I do

I go home and sleep in my room

Hoping that if I don’t talk about it then it’s not true

But it is true, I do what I do
