To watch a stranger, <br />With unopened eyes. <br />To open your mouth, <br />and speak only lies. <br /> <br />To pretend to cry, <br />with crocodile tears. <br />Pretend to be brave. <br />Never facing your fears. <br /> <br />To listen with ignorance, <br />And not an open mind. <br />To look to the helpless. <br />And pretend to be kind. <br /> <br />To scream in a whisper, <br />Hoping you are not heard. <br />To move your mnouth, <br />But not say a word. <br /> <br />To live a lie. <br />That you call life. <br />Pretending to be happy, <br />While living in strife.<br /><br />Amanda Miller<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/feign/
