Pretending
Folder:
DESPAIR She walked among them, pretending
Decieving them with her beauty
Covering all her faults
Exposing to them a fake persona
One she lived separately from the rest
She smiled hollow, empty laughs
But they couldn't see through it
They took it all in, believed her
That she was one of them
The girl, she was black inside
Consumed by darkness, drenched in blood
She wore a mask of indifference
But with all things, pressure builds up behind the lies
Her mask was slipping
Her coverup was fading
Exposing her true form right before their eyes
No longer hidden behind her walls
They stare at the bared soul
Her thoughts and feelings on display
She walked among them
Pretending
i really love your poem. Especially this line...
The girl, she was black inside
Consumed by darkness, drenched in blood
