Everyone smile!
Say cheese!
Cheese!
Everyone looks so happy
But these people all around me
By looking at these pictures
The looks of joy
Are just scriptures
The ones around me
Don't truly care
All the times I was there for them
They called themselves my friends
When I was in need
They were no where to be seen
Nothing to them is what I mean
All I was to them was a cheap buzz
Always wondering
Is it me?
I always ignored the possibility
These people...
They don't like me
They...
They just...
They just want to look good for the pictures
Say cheese!
Cheese!
Everyone looks so happy
But these people all around me
By looking at these pictures
The looks of joy
Are just scriptures
The ones around me
Don't truly care
All the times I was there for them
They called themselves my friends
When I was in need
They were no where to be seen
Nothing to them is what I mean
All I was to them was a cheap buzz
Always wondering
Is it me?
I always ignored the possibility
These people...
They don't like me
They...
They just...
They just want to look good for the pictures
This poem is about all the people in my life that said they were my friends and said that they would be there for me. Growing up I always thought something was wrong with me because it always felt like no one cared about me. This poem is basically just describing that people only try to look good, not everyone who says they care truly do.
