Pretend

Pretending is a wonderful thing.
You can get through your whole life,
pretending to be someone else
or pretending to be better than what you are
or pretending to be happy when you're not.

I didn't give up, I let go.
I pretended it was all fine,
and I broke down.
I keep trying to see
past this darkness in front of my eyes.
My vision is blurred,
I pretend I can see everything just fine,
but I can't.

Pretending is what makes me, me.
I am who I am because I have pretended to be this way.
Throughout the life I have lived so far,
I'm not sure who I really am on the inside anymore.
I try and see past the masks I have put on,
but I can't see my true self anymore.
I keep trying, but there has been too much pretending.
I can't see anymore.
I can't feel anymore.
I can't pretend anymore.
But I will.

    It makes perfect sense to me.
    I find myself doing the same thing, pretending to be someone else
    It's easier than facing the truth.
    Anyways, great write.
