• Not True

    My life story is one I’ll never tell
    Nothing’s wrong
    See my smile?
    It’s so wonderful and happy
    That’s all you’ll ever need to know
    My father doesn’t beat me
    My mother doesn’t scorn me
    Nothing’s wrong
    With my life
    It’s perfect in every way
    Right?
    You believe me right?
    Good.
    My smile is all you need to know
    It’s pure
    Not hallow
    Not untrue
    I made my smile
    One would call it a mask
    I don’t
    It’s real
    This perfect life
    Right?
    Please tell me it is
    Why do I have to wake up?
    It may not be true,
    But it’s all I have
