charming strangers

by lightinthedarknesspoetry

Wistful,  cheerless, used  to  be  brave,   and  fearless.  Liars,  haters  have  been  walking,   around  me  these  days. Charming,  well  educated,  that's  who  you  showed  to  me  before  you  shot  me I  thought  you  were  charming. I  thought  you  were  well  educated.  I  thought  you  needed  me. It's  all  gone  when  you  left  me. I  was  just  looking  for  some  friends,  Now;  I'm  only  looking for the  real  ones. Couldn't  realize  which  ones  were  fake  before,  When  did  hellos  start  to  be  called  as  goodbyes,  After  some  while,  I  know  which  ones  are.  Couldn't  stand  to  this  anymore,  faded,  Feeling  so  alone  in  this  crowded  room,  Can't  love  like  this, it  has  exceeded,  Feeling  like  I've  overdosed.  Wasted. Every  colour  was  taking  me  back  to  you,  Every  mark  was  pushing  me  away  from  you.  Spring  hasn't  begun  yet. It  was  not  warm  at  all. Just  cold  with  sadness,  darkness  with  secrets,    strangers  with  lies.  Charming  strangers  are  everywhere.  They've  been  around for  centuries. They  look  like  Venus  or  Mars,  inside  they're  like  black  holes. Pluto  who  I've  always  been.  An  outsider?    no,  no,  no  A  fighter.  ☾ M. E. Kuşaslan ✩ @lightinthedarknesspoetry
