my amiability
a false cheerfulness
is in control and
won't be left behind
a hypocrite's fibs
sweet self-assertion
get better, become
more successful
easier to pretend I'm
not feeling what I'm feeling
than attempt the truth
and take the risk
here we are again my friend
gluttons for punishment
it's a hot morning and I think
neither path is appropriate
then you make a move to fight
and I forget to be overwhelmed
awkward or vulnerable
and start shooting
2011
I hear you.
