[hometext] => Life is a lie.
[bodytext] => Waking up, I tell myself that I’m okay Just as I to every morning of every day Convince myself that I will move on Trying not to seem withdrawn Go to school and put on an act No one knows the truth, so they do not react Persuading words leak from my mind Reminding me to avoid being left behind Everyone seems to be moving forward One the train to the future they all board While I am left stuck in the past With faded dreams that didn’t last All the unwanted memories haunt me Filling me with pain and misery I must find a way to forget this But I don’t think a solution exists So I close my eyes and lie again It is the only way my heart will mend Tell myself I will love once more I just can’t take the truth like before Don’t remind me that this could be wrong It’s the only way I can remain strong Build up my hopes and live in a dream Life isn’t as easy as it seems But I put on a smile and convince you it’s real To you, the truth, I will never reveal Convincing lies bleed from my lips I hope the truth never slips But if all hope does die If I break down and cry You won’t have anything to say Because you never knew that I felt this way I hide it well don’t I?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
