Pretend.

by anonymous   Apr 28, 2006


Cover your eyes and look away,
pretend you did not see.
pretend you saw my mask,
and did not see the real me.

just forget what you saw,
pretend i am okay.
pretend you didn't see it,
just turn and walk away.

pretend that i am normal,
but we both know I'm not.
and if someone asks you about me,
pretend that you forgot.

pretend things are the same,
just do it for my sake.
pretend i want to live,
even if i do not wake.

lie for me and smile,
pretend everything is right.
pretend that i am happy
and that i am alright.

pretend you did not see,
and pretend every things okay.
pretend i want to live,
and i want to find my way.

    Sometimes we are guilty of over looking things and not helping people even though we should. It was very sad to read and very well written u brought things which people try not to notice and deal with nicely to the fore. Great stuff!
