Two Faces

My message lies not in the sentence If you learn to read between the lines You will hear stories in my silence My life is not about roses and wines I'm happy on poetrysoup but sad in real life My face smiles while I weep with my heart A good girlfriend just became a bad wife Maybe it is time to make a fresh start

Boy I can really relate to this gem of a poem. most people aren't happy with their life. They lose themselves in electronic devises, face book and games, to escape reality. I am a depressive, poetry soup is my escape my world and my life, I don't have much else.without it I dread to think. A very good thought provoking poem. hope life will bring you some solace, and piece of mind soon. best wishes. Pete.
