Friendship Poetry

No One Is What They Seem To Be

All my hope has turned to stone,
The world has left me all alone.

I do admit I once had a dream,
But no one is what they seem.

I once possessed the ability to trust,
But all those people left me in the dust.

All my supposed friends deserted me,
I sometimes wonder how this could be.

I tell myself this is all a dream.
How could people's actions be so obscene?

Maybe if I just play life by ear,
And ignore my reflection in the mirror.

Everything would be okay,
I wish that could happen for at least one day.

I wish I could forget who I was,
And turn my past into a blurry fuzz.

Until then it will continue to haunt me,
Until then I will be trapped for I can never be free.
