Fake

I'm full of fake,

Fake smiles,

Fake cheers,

Fake laughs. 

I'm deep in pain,

Craving to speak,

The only thing that's real,

Is my sour tears.

I beg to speak,

Rant,

And release,

My feelings to you.

I'm just fake,

All fake smiles,

Fake cheers,

Just,

                         Fake....

Author's Note

I wrote this because I actually feel like this right now, I miss my dead relatives so much and I hate being called a drama queen or anything like that over crying at little things that actually really hurt. I fake laugh and smile and everything like that a lot nowadays. So thanks...

People don't really know how to react when we show or share our sorrow or times of grieving. Sometimes we're expected to be fake in times like those. If your brave enough to show and share how you feel, what would happen? Wonderful poem of self-expression.

I was drawn in by the picture and the poem itself was short but well crafted. The deep personal touch behind it sucks to hear about :/ As long as you take their words and memories along with you, your relatives will never truly be gone :)

Just love the format and structure, and emotions are expressed just aptly, great :)

This is so powerful. It's very simple and blunt, which makes it more "Whoa..." worthy. I can really feel the emotion. I hate you feel fake, but just because you feel a certain way, doesn't make it true. Feel better!
