Acting On A Stage

by Rachel   Nov 2, 2005


I try so hard
To walk away and not be lost in regret
I really do,
But you make me wonder if you really mean what you say.
Do you really care,
Or is it all an act?
You say you want to understand,
But you don't even try.
Your beautiful eyes
Sparkle with lies.
Carve the wounds into my heart like it's nothing.
I want to feel my heart bleed.
How did I let myself
Fall into this lie of yours?
Fake tears falling down your cheeks,
Claiming you know how I feel.
The life you're acting out,
Makes me wonder
If you really care about me.
It seems to me,
That you're doing nothing at all
But acting on a stage.

    I really liked this poem, I could really relate. I feel all the time that everyone around you is just putting on an act, that life is nothing but a big show. Just know your not alone, i'm always here if you want to vent. Keep up the great work... 5/5
