Under the guise
of
spurious smiles –
animosity thrives.
Hollow gestures
flower
running counter to
true nature.
As
words likened
to
pebbles
impinge like boulders
shoulders weary
from burdens
foisted by others
as the illusion
dissipates.
The piracy of
adoration
ensues
leaving egos
not bruised
but shattered.

Sad but true. Very well written, reminds me of the song “Smiling Faces.”
