And thats how I became a FAKE!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

AND…THAT’S HOW I BECAME A "FAKE"

 

 

I always used to lie awake at night…
Searching for the real person inside…
But I never found myself back….
And that’s how I became a fake…

Oh! My heart doesn’t beat right…
And increasing my pain every night….
I can’t get you out of my sight…
I’m living without any hope of light…

I know I can’t turn back time...
But I really want you back in my life…
So…for that reason I gave you “whole of me”…
To be the kind of person you want me to be…
But you never returned me myself back...
And that’s how….Yes that’s how…
I became a FAKE…

But I never pretended that I’m broken inside…
Always tried to give a false smile from outside…
And let no one know the story of some thousand tears….
Behind that single smile of mine…
I still remember that day when I gave you “whole of me”…
To be the kind of person you want me to be…..
But you never returned me myself back…
And that’s how…yes that’s how….
I became a FAKE….

And…Still I shed a tear every night…
Still searching for the real person inside…
But I can’t find myself back….
And I think so…now you know…
How I became a FAKE…
Why you never returned me myself back??
And that’s why…and yes that’s why...
I became such a FAKE…..
I became such a FAKE…

But I never pretended that I'm broken inside�
Always tried to give a false smile from outside�
And let no one know the story of some thousand tears�.
Behind that single smile of mine�
I still remember that day when I gave you "whole of me"�
To be the kind of person you want me to be�..
But you never returned me myself back�
And that's how�yes that's how�.
I became a FAKE�.

So many people can relate to this, Bhavya. I wrote a story entitled, "Taking Off the Mask of Pretense" and a poem called "Behind the Smile" you might want to read when you have a moment... Not sure if you have ever read them, but they both made me think of some of this write. It is so easy to pretend and to hide how we are really feeling, putting on the "fake smile" while we are dieing inside. Repressing our feelings is so easy to do. The sad thing is that it tends to come out in other ways.

You have pegged emotions so many of us can relate to. Well done!

I liked the second pic a lot.
It's like capturing the feel very well and saying a lot of words.
Your poem indeed sad..too sad and full of grief and emotions.
I love this kind of dark writes!

Ah, the sorrows of a broken heart. Again, this poem forced me to think about my life from a slightly different point of view. To make someone see theirself in a new light is truly a rare gift. Continue the work. I look forward to reading more of it.
