Just so you know
I spend a lot of time
on my news feed
You think I miss it
when you comment
to another
when you've ignored me

for months and months...

It is fait accompli
just because I choose
to simply stay quiet
but why should I?

Why should I?

Why shouldn't you?

I should just post
what I really feel?
How much hurt
should I reveal?
Do you really want to know
all my hopes and dreams
crushed beneath my heel?

I read what you said
I see into your life
with what you don't.
I can't trust you'd understand
I say what most won't

I love to open Facebook
to have it facetiously ask me
'How I Feel?'

only to hate when I answer
with my own truth
I understand
where I'm coming from
but I doubt you do...
and I know
you don't
because you are escaping
your own ordeal

So deceiving

is the
Status

you are
receiving
and tonights dinner will be.....
