False Laughter

by P.oemless   Feb 3, 2007


What happened?
in the past it was admissible,
People simply ignored your distortions of truth
your back-stabbing
Now that you've done it to me
I can never forgive you

In public it's all peachy keen
I try my hardest to force my laughter to sound real
I try to keep conversations flowing when you listen
Otherwise you'll snap again
leading even more people to detest me

The people you call friends
they all use you
We all feel the same way
some are just better at masking their feelings
Those are the one's you feel closest to
the ones that spend more time concealing their true personalities with high quality lies

I'm not going to decieve you in order to befriend you
Not again

    I tried to fix the stanza's and periods, but it didn't improve much. Oh well.

    The rhyming was NOT intentional :)

    I like the idea of the poem. but the poem itself is a little off. because the flow is sketchy. and i cant really tell if its supposed to rhym or not simply because it rhyms in random places. idk if that is purposly done or by accident.

    I really think this has great potential!!! I can relate in only every way. I really like it. But... I think that it needs a better flow. And its poetry- therefor you dont need all the periods, or commas. Especially when you have stanza's, or in your case (need them)/ Im not being mean tho. Seriously im not. I just try to help. lol sorry if you get the wrong idea. But thanks for the comment.
