Facade

At happiness I'll pretend.
Maybe it's as they say.
If I wear the mask long enough,
It will become me.

wow, This is what I always thought about happiness, Somehow If I pretend to be happy, it will simply rubs off on me, that i am happy as i pretend to be...

very relatable piece my friend.

[Caradoc]

Yea. Interesting to see that some things are nearly universal, eh my friend? A good tactic I've found is to interact with people that make you laugh and smile. Happiness does appear to rub off after a while. :)

human emotions and human nature are universal in our beings my friend, or atleast that's what i believe them to be. In one way or another, there will always be a match, i mean a story well match our own just a slightly different views or situations... As humans as we are, mistakes always repeats itself.

Oh, yeah, I enjoyed that good tactic, I always do or always be drawn to people who makes me smile or laugh, because in that matter, somehow, even a little, or a speck of happiness, i could simply share with them... so i really think it does appear to rub off on us, perhaps for a time being the very least...

[Caradoc]

I love your shorter pieces, you are really able to pack an emotional punch with few words.

[Caradoc]

Thank you. Most of my short pieces are 20 words or less, something I picked up from my good friend Belle.

Does the mask transform or the face?
I Like the questioning here.

[Caradoc]

Indeed.

Thanks for stopping by.

[Rob Santana]

Wow!!!! Short with powerful meaning. You do anything long enough you will become slave to it, whatever it may be. Well written Caradoc.

[Caradoc]

Thank you very much, CREEPER.

I'll have to throw myself into the habit. The light in my life departed. I have to find my way in the dark now. My only comfort is that there are others also searching.

I wish you well, my friend.
