Mannequin

By Kitty_LostInHerOwnMind

I live in a world
Where no one is real
No one has an open mind
No one is accepting
I live in a world
Where friends hate you
Ridicule you
Kick you when you're down
I can't wait to leave
And go back to reality
Everyone here
Wears a fake smile
Lies to get ahead
And are total hipocrites
They're always talking shit
On people that state are their friends
You can't confide
In these mannequins
Unless you want
Everyone to know
I'm so afraid
That by being here
I'll become fake
Like everyone else.

    My Kit.... it's wonderful! Seriously... I know what you're going through. But as long as you stay true to yourself & like... talk to me... you won't lose yourself in it all. I really liked this one! ~A Broken Soul~

    I know of these feelings all to well, and we don't exactly feel the way we [should] feel either. Just never ignore these people for who they really aren't, understand their reasons, otherwise, you can take yourself to some very bad places...
