Avoid

Living in fear

Remember who you hold dear

The ones that let you down

Will only do it again

Don’t avoid the words

The actions of those who care

The lies from the ones who don’t

Know the only reason they have

To get close to you

Ego trips.

Cherry pickers.

Nothing but insecurities

Every aspect put up for the

World to see

Don’t judge those who keep far

They know best

Till the day they come to see

Come to live like the rest.

Nothing but gratification.

Loss of love

Loss of soul

Empty thoughts

And nothing but keepsake hearts

Internal clocks ticking

To announce the day that will come

Sooner than later

And everyone will see the real truth

Beneath all their talk

The end of the show

Surprised no one showed for the

Curtain call?
