Pretend

When you said you believed me I laughed I laughed how you easily believed In the things I pretend How you never knew the things I hid Behind the smile I wore You believed in the way I always seemed to be happy You believed how my silence was a mere silence and not words I always wanted to speak You believed in those silly smilies I sent you the time my tears didn’t know how to stop You believed when I said the reason behind this scar is a door or my bed You believed when I said my head was aching You always believed me and that is where the problem lies You see how easily you believed the things I pretend to be And even after knowing me so well You don’t really know who I really am Behind everything I pretend Behind everything I wish you never believed

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.
