you think me naive, that I simply go along with anything you say
but sadly, i can see right through what you try so hard to convey
you think my heart beats unknowing to your illusive protest
your honesty and care is but a simple grain at best
I smile and nod, carrying on this mask with kindness
all the while reminded the lack of your devoutness
hanging on to what strands of connection, friendship even
though you preach hypocritically, it is I the one you never believed in
where and when did it become too distant and not enough
that life suddenly became so hard, each step so rough
so onward i carry on with my chin held high
though within the soul quenches , in shadows i sigh
