Pretend.

with each curl
of cigerette smoke that carresses your lips
from which you still pretend
and tell me it's all ok

everytime he spends a day asleep
and wastes a meal
we ignore the fact that
he is slowly killing himself

each day he cracks open another bottle
with money we don't have
we bite our tongues
and look away

how long will we hide
behind this curtain of lies?
