Sugarcoated Lies

About the ending of a friendship and how fake she had become.

So tell me, honey,
how have you been holding up?
I sometimes see your pictures
when I get the time,
the courage,
the strength,
or maybe just the weakness.
You look so beautiful still
and oh, how you look happy now.

But are you really?
Do you feel that smile?
Or are you jacked up on artificial sweetener?
The fake sugar makes everything go down easier.

Hell,
the way you sugarcoat things,
I can even accept the fact
that maybe,
you just never
     even loved me
          to begin with.

I really like this write.
"Or are you jacked up on artifical sweetener?

Edgy lines. I like it.

Thank you! I was a very angry person when I wrote this. I'm friends with this person now but at the time she tore my soul to shreds.

(also I hope this comment gets to you considering you left your review three years ago; i kinda forgot about/abandoned writercafe for a while but I'm trying to fix that.)
