Fake

fake smile
fake strength
fake heart
fake presence
fake action
fake self
fake good son
fake happy son
fake good friend
fake to myself
fake conscience
fake 
all fake

I am sorry to myself
how long can I stand still
how long till I am fully consumed
I wanna rebel
I just wanna rebel
but don't have strength left even to say it out

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
