Façade
April 19, 2010
Love for a day
That’s what it felt like
Holding hands, smiling
That’s as deep as it got
Yet as I watched you walk away
My heart was crushed
Unknowing of your feelings
Unknowing of your intentions in the first place
Eventually you come back
All smiles and pleads
Knowing that I will say “Okay”
Self inflicted pain is all it is
All it turns out to be
No real feelings
No real caring
Just a smile
And façade
That’s all you are
