Fake

by @awkward

Just keep walking Head down, music up Ignore the stares Ignore the whispers Run into someone Mumble an apology Avoid eye contact Mess with hair Focus on breathing Just keep breathing Eyes start watering Hands start shaking Hear my name Wipe eyes Look up Smile Nothing's wrong I'm perfectly fine Just keep faking it No one will know Don't let him see Just how broken I really am Faking is all I can do No one likes a depressed girl
