Fake

By Bloody_Hands

I watch at a distance
You do not want me near
Because of the way I dress
You think I feed off fear

You believe I do not feel
That my emotions are a lie
Attempt to see me as a person
All you need to do is try

I can see you crying
Looking with such heart-ache
But the next minute your fine
All you are is a fake

You many not believe
But you bring out my hate
My anger at everything
You make me want to fade

You manipulate all around you
And it feels like a knife in me
Crushing my soul with games
Yet you still never see

My eyes burn, body tremble
fists clinched, throat tight
I try to push these thoughts away
But this I cannot fight

I tried to help
I gave you my all
But now I sit alone
Away from you all
