In a binding contract <br />I signed at puberty <br />I'm allowed to be <br />In a constant state of misery <br />Locked up in my head <br />10 emotions I medically take <br />Choosing which one <br />Today I want to fake <br />My face perceived <br />By those misconceptions <br />The child of my pain <br />Is mass deception <br />Always the same <br />At night I lie awake <br />Wondering which mood <br />Next i want to fake <br />My heart lies unused <br />And never open <br />From fear of being abused <br />Beaten and broken <br />Locked up in my head <br />10 emotions I medically take <br />choosing which one <br />Today I want to fake <br />I follow pain <br />Walking in the wrong direction <br />Hating those <br />Who ooze perfection <br />I stand by the contract <br />I willingly signed <br />Thinking i'm the way <br />God had designed<br /><br />nicola burkett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/66-fake/
