Facade
May 28, 2013
It’s not okay, it’s not alright. To be happy at day and cry at night. It’s not alright, it’s not okay, when you force yourself to smile all day. I can’t help it, I wear a facade. It seems like everyone applauds--- about my chronic depression. All the sadness and extreme aggression- is directed straight at my soul. They try to gain all control. They forget that I don’t just merely exist. I live a life, a life in the mist. Camouflaged by the dark; one little lark- perched in one lone tree, well... this is me.
