People Who Are Fake

I see through them

People Who Are Fake

I see fake people, hiding behind smiles,

Their words are empty, their truth runs miles.

They say what’s needed, they fake what’s real,

But I see through it all, I feel what they conceal.

Their laughter sounds hollow, eyes full of doubt,

Pretending to have it all figured out.

They wear a mask, but it doesn’t fit,

I see the cracks, the lies they emit.

They walk by me, but we’re worlds apart,

Their facade is clever, but I trust my heart.

I see fake people, and I turn away,

I’ll find the real ones, and they’ll guide my way.

And when the masks fall, truth will be shown,

The real ones will rise, and I’ll never be alone.

I will know who to trust, no one is fake at all

No more fake people, no problems at all.

    Nothing like a little hypocrisy to start the day. Lol. Always there when things are good, never around when things are bad. Fakers suck. Lol

    Good job, but isn't hard to know who is fake, they might just be putting on an act.
