Facade

Contributed by spaceotter on Sunday, 4th August 2002 @ 07:14:35 AM in AEST
Topic: Suicide



I look at your face and see happiness.
I look in your eyes and see an unbridled
sadness.
My soul throbs with sympathy, for I too am
an actor in this world of fools.
To see me on any given day,
-Reaction-
So bright,
So happy.
Delve deeper and experience what has been
eating me.
-Slowly-
-Slowly-

Now I decay and my facade has begun to
crack.
Soon enough I will crumble and fall-
-Fall through the cracks of this world,
And be consumed by the fires of this place
you call earth-

Yet I call hell.

Quite simply, I loved this poem, if 'love' is an appropriate word that is........you seem to have found a small window to my soul....

Thank you.

Is there really a difference between Earth and Hell? I can't think of one....

I like this a lot. You hit the nail on the head. How many people do this? Fascade? Some pretend to feel the feelings that they know they should feel, but "slowly, slowly" everyday is only an opportunity for another fascade, to continue the 'numbing game'

"How do I feel? when my feelings don't even work?"
-Lost Prophets 'still laughing'

"Fall through the cracks of this world" that's a good line. It gives an image for the next line "and be consumed by the fires..." OF HELL? Be careful, you're not dead yet. You want identity, you want satisfaction, you want to live? Well you have to kill the fascade, end the numbing. And if you want to know how to do that, e-mail me. stikker4life@yahoo.com L8sauce

For many years no one knew how bad I felt. I hope things are better for you now.
