How lonesome it is
To live in this kind of world
Where smiles are nothing
But a curvature of the mouth

How lonesome it is
For the world to be full
Of empty stares and vacant laughs
Of half-hearted love affairs and ulterior motives

Oh how sad it really is
To hide our faces
Behind painted masks of perfection
Concealing the beauty of erring

For as long as humans yearn for acceptance
In society's demented depiction of perfection
We shall hide behind these masks
And forget who we are beneath it
Did this for our English class. (Rushed 'cause I totally forgot about it.)
Sorry for the grammatical errors, wrong use of words, and blah blah. I didn't really have the time to check it before I submitted it to our prof.

Anyway~
I'm only submitting this because I feel bad for not posting any artwork on dA for a lonngg time.
I'm always too busy with school. Especially now since my prelim exams are next week.
...
Kbye.
