Acting Not Happy
Always pretty good at acting;
But faking it off stage? No, I’m not;
Heart on my sleeve when I’m happy;
Made up anger conceals happy,
yet accurate it’s absolutely not;
Words of clay dribble through acting;
Familiar mask, waste not want not;
Heaven forbid you make me happy
Mood swings a pendulum acting;
I’m exhausted acting not happy.
