laughter that is canned
a smile that reveals
an emptiness beneath
an outward caricature
of carefree charming
and happiness in nothing
a lie that shows your truth
but only to the one
who loves you from afar
--------
pavement pounding
blood in your ears
a friend at your side
lights surrounding
pushing through fears
nowhere left to hide
---------
lost in a painting
I never could share
encircled by loved ones
but outside the inside
looking on at something
I never could keep
walking down the path
to answers
not for me
