A Fake Me
Amlan Das Dec 2013
The path I am in
Is not what it is meant to be
The destination I rejoice about
Is not where I wanted to be

The fib I live
Is what suffocates me
Whenever I forget it
Either of you come to remind me

What you see me
Is just a fake me
A me stuck in morass
Sinking with the weight of a lie

I faked myself
Pushed myself in an illusion
I can’t live where I want to be
But got my life where I don’t want to be

With fake promises
Celebrating fake happiness
Pretending fake contentment
This is just a fake me.

— The End —
