Star G Apr 2016
We move by strings tied to
our beings, like marionettes.

They want us to smile and be happy
so we do just that; we appease our audience.

But behind the curtains we are angry and sad,
hurt and regretful, tired and disregarding.

We don't love each other like we used to.

We act like a real couple in front of
everyone because that's what they expect.

And you know what?

That's what makes us perfect.

We're people-pleasers, we do what people
want us to do, no matter the cost.

So keep staying with me my love,
we'll grow our hate towards each other...

...together.
