Fake.

By Dreamzz

My fake face is not my own
my real one wears a frown
but when I was making mine I turned it upside down

 

My fake hair is plain and bland
My real hair is purpley blue,
but when I was making mine a thought to make my hair a lie not true.

 

My fake insides are black as a jet.
My real colors haven't been invented yet.
But when I was making mine I wanted to hide what was on the inside.

    Perfect. Really. What is seen is not always what is there. And I think people hide things not to be deceitful but to protect others from a reality they may not be able to understand. Or maybe just so you don't have to explain yourself to everyone all the time. It's a courtesy of sorts. Good piece once again. You have become a fav of mine...everything you write strikes a chord in me...we must share a favorite song.

    I suppose so.. Great minds think alike right?
