they pretend they are friends

they pretend they are friends
no one buys this weird façade
they were the worst married couple ever

they were not even close when they were dating
why they got married is unknown to any of us
they pretend they are friends

when they would be much better off
avoiding and ignoring each other
why the façade?

None of us can guess.
