Fakes

Fakes
by: Emily Ann Miller
Surrounded by people
Caught in a world of unjust
Following a ever-fading light
Living the fullest
Evermore fulfilled
Lost in a sea of fakes
Only a few to trust
Your very own heart
Beats inside you
Forever . . . eternally . . . forever yours
A narrow path too easily gone astray
Forever caught
Within a sea of fakes
Forever hidden inside a facade
A friendly mask
Over a cowardly truth
Hidden eyes, hidden minds
Forever trapped within their beating hearts
Never to be seen again
Only to be seen by the body of the fakes
