Fakeness

It’s a cruel world

So I’ve been told

By the ones who are supposed to know

And there is no fair

No one really shares

From the goodness of their souls

People speak

The wiser preach

The stronger use their arms

The lawyer lies

The weaker dies

And the blue skies remain calm

The sun will still rise on a bloody day

The rays will still shine down

And there are no doubts that the sun won’t stray

When more still fall to the ground

When there’s empty

It’s so tempting

To keep on wearing that smile

Swirl and twirl

It’s only the world

That’s been watching you all this while

Innocent eyes

Truth in disguise

Fingers still stained red

Graceful creator

Or royal dictator

It doesn’t matter; the path points ahead

Stars still sparkle over cities of love

As hate crimes gently rise

And stars will still twinkle in the sky above

As the leftover good is baptized

under vision’s of peace

A politician’s grease

Leaving no streaks on the surface

Beyond reason of war

Lies the scam of a whore

As she bites her nails, feeling nervous

Letters being penned

The faith of a friend

Reaching the ears of a foe

Go on and stab it

Whilst you think they will grab it

Deliver the final blow

The angels still fly when the smoke ascends

And the forests are burned to the ground

And the angels still fly when it comes to an end

Though their smile may just turn to a frown

Who am I

That I can deny

The facts that exist beyond debate

Who am I

That I can live high

And between good and bad, to differentiate

It could be that I’m blind

Falling behind

Maybe nothing to say for my defence

I may have tripped

Upon molehills, and ripped

The very core of my knowledge and sense

I only speak from what I have seen; I only see from what is real

The world around me is biased and mean; the good is rare and congealed

Correct me please if I don’t speak the truth, correct me please if you dare

But please no lies; you shan’t exclaim this is news…

There’s no doubt that of this you’re aware…
