Never Sincere

"How do you do it"
they whisper to me
"Oh, I don't know" 
I smile and say

but

I know
I hear
I feel
Every hour,
cut,
skipped meal

Each day a reminder
they don't care to hear
so 
I smile
I giggle
but it's not sincere

Beata Agustin Date: 12/3/2022 3:29:00 AM Thanks for sharing this. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome 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. God bless you.
