Fakes Out

Say what you mean
Mean what you say
Truth can be seen
In you anyway
There is no mask
Where you can hide
So all I can ask
Be what you are inside
Never be a cheap fake
It's an insult for me
Falsehood I can't take
For I hate hypocrisy
So my words are direct
There is no pretense
We may not be perfect
But at least we make sense.

Incorrect Speaking

Incorrectness in your speech
Carefully avoid, my Anna;
Study well the sense of each
Sentence, lest in any manner
It misrepresent the truth;
Veracity's the charm of youth.

You will not, I know, tell lies,
If you know what you are speaking.
Truth is shy, and from us flies;
Unless diligently seeking
Into every word we pry,
Falsehood will her place supply.

Falsehood is not shy, not she,-
Ever ready to take place of
Truth, too oft we Falsehood see,
Or at least some latent trace of
Falsehood, in the incorrect
Words of those who Truth respect.

Crazy Amanda

don't know what you really got
It's hard to stay and not pretend
Can't make sense to what you got
Seems i can't comprehend
Well im happy to be, only all that you see
And im not one to learn to be the same
I dn't want to hear you bitch no more
I was better off a year before
No matter how i try i can't ignore
But everytime i think my brain gets sore
When i'm with you
What's so hard about good-byes
Im sorry im just not as keen
Im planning out a perfect life
When i'm only 19
Cause im happy to be only all that you see
And i'm not one to learn to be the same
I don't want to try to just be freinds
Nothin's gonna change my mind again
If ever i had toughts they would be dead
I can't even think inside my head
When i'm with you
I'm on my way, can't you see that's the truth
So long, i can't stay, can't you see that's the truth
I'm on my way, can't you see that's the truth
So long, i can't stay, can't you see that's the truth
See that's the, see that's the...
Last that i can take
Because it's getting really hard to fake
It's not like it's my problem that your late
Why can't you just spare the lies i hate
When i'm with you

It's Too Late

Stayed in bed all morning just to pass the time
There's something wrong here, there can be no denying
One of us is changing, or maybe we've stopped trying
And it's too late, baby, now it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide
And I just can't fake it
It used to be so easy living here with you
You where light and breezy and I knew just what to do
Now you look so unhappy, and I feel like a fool
And it's too late, baby, now it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide
And I just can't fake it
There'll be good times again for me and you
But we just can't stay together, don't you feel it too
Still I'm glad for what we had, and how I once loved you
But it's too late, baby, it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide
And I just can't fake it

I Hate...

I hate the way I’ve messed up my life,
I hate the way I cry,
I hate the person I’ve become,
I hate that I want to die.

I hate the fact that I feel so alone,
I hate the way I hide,
I hate avoiding those who care,
I hate that so often I’ve lied.

I hate the way that I hurt myself,
I hate the scars I make,
I hate that people don’t understand,
I hate that they think I’m fake.

I hate the fact that I’m depressed,
I hate that I’m so ill,
I hate feeling tired all the time,
I hate that I need the pills.

I hate the way I feel so scared,
I hate that people can’t see,
I hate how I have lost myself,
Quite simply, I just hate me.

It Will Still Make Sense

You can read it as it is,
For the rest of your life!
And...
It will still make sense.
If it connects to a meaning meant.
And not condensed...
From the meat of the purpose.
And left as intended.

There is no pretense to delude sentiments.
Or to mask evidence...
Of a truth that defies,
Embellishments used...
To boost the attraction to seduce,
A deception produced with sweetened...
And/or spiced lies.

You can read it as it is,
For the rest of your life!
And...
It will still make sense.
If it connects to a meaning meant.
And not condensed...
From the meat of the purpose.
And left as intended.

It will feed and tease curiosities.
To please a seeking of depth....
Once the foolishness has left!

Go ahead,
Read it as it is...
For the rest of your life.
Let it dust,
And its pages curl.
Put it on a bookshelf...
Or leave it by itself.
To be discovered by someone else.
To treat one's mind to intoxicate,
Much like a fine wine over time!

It will still make sense.
If it connects to a meaning meant.
And not be condensed...
From a purpose that is intended.

There is no pretense to delude sentiments.
Or to mask evidence...
Of a truth that defies,
Embellishments used...
To boost the attraction to seduce,
A deception produced with lies.

It will still make sense.
If it connects to a meaning meant.
And for you reviewed,
Like a treasured document.

Something Interseting Sestina #1

as long as you live, there is love
but in the recceses rise hate
all these words I draw with passion
with nothig to support me, except my faith
but to others my philosophy seems fake
so I go eat in a kitchen

build me a broken kitchen
that can be worsen by love
a kitchen that make all truth fake
one that is made whole with hate.
There I can vehemently laugh at those with faith,
there I have no time for passion

I have no time for you because you have no time for me dear passion
that's why you can't be a recipe in my kitchen
an the essence in my food is not threw faith
don't love
lie, loath, be livid, and hate
understand such rules with sincerity, don't be fake

yes I say that because the mind of the world is fake
no true passion
much mocked hate
but all is genuine and true in my kitchen
no false love
and lots of thrawted faith

tried faith
and to others this isn't fake
the situation is as real as love
and love as real as unforgiven passion
and both passion and love will destory my uncanny kitchen
which is established by raw hate

that word hate
miss understood by those that don't know the meaning of its faith
but all my creations thrives on it in my kitchen
and yes I will assure you no thing is fake
plus all creations are made without passon
and all creations in my kitchen are mained by love

So come in with hate, and finally take in all creation that's not fake
renew and change your faith, and here make lame all passion
in my kitchen, the place that no one love.

Stayed in bed all mornin just to pass the time
Theres something wrong here there can be no denyin
One of us is changin
Or maybe weve just stopped tryin
And its too late baby
Now it too late
Tho we really did try to make it
Somethin inside has died
And I cant hide and I just cant fake it

Oblivious

Day after long dreadful day,
I come home and quietly
put on my mask
so they don't worry.

I have a fake smile
plastered on my face,
and yet they don't even
notice a difference from a real and a fake.

I tell them my day was
fairly good.... each day!
Maybe tell them I 
was a little bored.

I cover up my body,
act like everything is fine.
They don't suspect a 
single thing is wrong with me.

They can't see anything.
They can't see that underneath
my smile, I am screaming
for them to notice!

They can't see that underneath
my mask, I am crying.
They can't see the agony and 
sorrow in my eyes.

They can't see that underneath 
everything, I am bruised, cut,
and shattered to pieces.
Blood is everywhere!

They can't see that I
hide my true self from them.
They think my mask is truly me,
they don't know anything.

Late at night and on my own,
I don't have to hide.
I don't have to wear my mask 
or fake smile or clothes.

I scream and cry out to the night,
blood oozing out of me,
the pieces of my heart 
scatter on the floor.

No one hears my cries,
No one sees my tears.
No one can see how hurt
I have been.

And now here I go,
back down this road again.
Spiraling down further
into the darkness.

Depression is taking hold,
this time it's stronger 
and even more resilient.
I don't think I will escape this time.

This darkness creeps all
around me, consuming all that is good.
Replacing the good things
with five more bad things.

It takes hold of me,
reaches inside of me
and takes out my heart.
Takes my soul out.

Then on to another
victim, leaves me,
a corpse with nothing left inside;
just a shell.

The night closes in fast.
And I prepare for the worst.
This time no one will 
be there to save me.

They don't even know
that I'm already gone.
They only see what
they want to see, and it's not me...

Making Me Hate You

Cant simplify all the things that burn inside
But when you ask, Im fine but Im lying all the time
Its tough to say when you laugh at me this way
But in my mind Im crying, Im crying all the time
So pick up the vide, make me want to justify
Every word thats coming out your mouth
No looking back, you better choose a side
Im sinking within
You fake, you lie
Youre making me hate you
You fake, you lie
Youre making me want you even more
Cant see any good side of you
But I am trying, Im trying
I cant explain all the damage you can bring
But when Im blind
Im dying, Im dying all the time
So pick up the vibe, make me wanna justify
Every word thats coming out of your mouth
No lookin back, all I wanna see
Is that youre sinkin within
You fake, you lie
Youre making me hate you
You fake, you lie
Youre making me want you even more
Yes I will always be
Torn by what I see
Yes I will always be the same
Even though I stop thinking of you
Cant simplify all the things that burn inside
But when I try, Im dying, Im dying all the time
You fake, you lie
Youre making me hate you
You fake, you lie
Youre making me want you even moreyou fake, you lie
Youre making me hate you
You fake, you lie

Always seek the refuge of the truth

You can neither touch it nor feel it,
Unless you peel the cover of falsehood off,
For 'falsehood is bound to perish by nature, '
And then you will get the truth with all its might,
Howsoever dark the night is,
A glow warm ends its monopoly,
Likewise a small truth challenges
The mighty empire of falsehood,
So never rely on falsehood,
And always seek the refuge of the truth.

Fake People

All the time
I look in your eyes
But what I see
And what you say to me
Are two totally different things
You pretend you put on a façade
I only wish you knew that I'm not
The only one who sees it as odd
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Because of their own insecurities
They try to pass on to you their idiosyncrasies
Thinking they are your friends you let them into your lives
But then they turn around and about you tell nothing but lies
Jealousy is such an ugly thing
Almost as ugly as hypocrisy
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Fake people
Fake people
So now I must ask who are your friends
Are they really what they seem to be
Or are they just trying to hide from you their envy
Do your friends really have your back
Or is it that that's where by them you've been stabbed
I once had a friend
One I thought would be there for me till the end
Then one day my happiness ended and theirs began
And when I needed someone to lean on
Behind me did no one stand
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Because of their own insecurities
They try to pass on to you their idiosyncrasies
Thinking they are your friends you let them into your lives
But then they turn around and about you tell nothing but lies
Jealousy is such an ugly thing
Almost as ugly as hypocrisy
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Fake people
Fake people
Be careful who you let know your business
'Cause in the end
Rumors about you they could be spreadin'
Don't put your trust in people who don't trust you
There's no telling what they're liable to say or do
Grow smarter with each experience
And you'll see true friends
Are the friends who are their with and for you till the end
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Because of their own insecurities
They try to pass on to you their idiosyncrasies
Thinking they are your friends you let them into your lives
But then they turn around and about you tell nothing but lies
Jealousy is such an ugly thing
Almost as ugly as hypocrisy
Fake people
The things they do are oh so evil
Fake people
Fake people

Whats Real

what is love
what is hate
are they real
do i really love
do i truly hate
how would i know
what they really feel like
i think im in love
therefore i am
is that how it works
does that make sense
if i dont like someone
do i hate them
do they hate me
how could we know
is that how life is
wandering about emotions
how do we know
that love is not hate
and hate is not love
hate and love are just words
what is the truth
no one will tell me
because no one knows
we are all lost

I Hate...

I hate the way you make me feel
I hate that you think your always right
I hate that you mock my words
I hate the words you say to me
I hate how you always yell at me
I hate that you don’t take me seriously
I hate that you think every thing's a joke
I hate how you ignore me
I hate how your overdramatic
I hate how it’s only your way or no way
I hate how you don’t believe or trust me
I hate how you don’t give me second chance
I hate that your selfish and so unfair
I hate how you know how to get to me
I hate how you play with my emotions
I hate the way you make me cry
I hate how you make me wish horrible things upon myself
I hate the way you make me feel useless and worthless
And most of all I hate that I love you

There Is No Sense At All. I Say

there is no sense at all figuring the truth
there is none to boot
nothing to say, in this world where words
do not exist,

as you go out from that door where syllables
are functional
you enter the gate of the truth of all.

in perfect understanding without words.
in perfect harmony, without the scales.

Livin in Anger, Love, and Hate

Livin in anger
Anger that has no ending
Anger that has no fear
Anger that has no wants
Anger that has no needs
Anger that will keep comin
Anger that will keep hurtin
Anger that will keep killin
Livin in love
Love that lives forever
Love that everyone needs
Love that will surpass everything
Love lives inside
Love that will make your life easy
Love that will make your life hard
Love that is so pure
Love that is so hateful
Livin in hate
Hate that haunts and haunts
Hate that creeps and sneaks
Hate that makes the best out of situations
Hate that makes the worst out of situations
Hate that tells the truth
Hate that people hide
Hate that people express with words
Hate that can and cannot be controlled
Hate that runs the world
Hate that everyone has

Just Ignore...

When you know that some people hate you
Doesn’t it kill you inside?
When you know they don’t want to see you
And every time you’re near they just hide
To them you’re nothing
Because of your nationality and race
That even they insult you
directly infront of your face
And you ask yourself
Why do people behave in such a way?
And you try to figure out the words
But realize that there’s nothing else to say
Did you ever find it hard to ignore
But every time you’re near they just talk about you more and more
About how your nationality and religion are wrong
And how they make you feel as if you don’t belong
Some people don’t deserve to be alive
And you know that their sins are mounting every day
And later you realize that it kills them inside
When you ignore them and just walk away…

Smile and Fake it

Smile hold it
just a little longer
they will never see
the pain inside me

smile for them
make them go away
let them believe
everything is ok

smile and just fake it
cuz i know they cant take it
the pain they would never
understand

be the actress
play ur part
u see the words
they never speak

inside im to deep
they could never
get me
so ill smile
and fake it

whatever makes them happy
they can never know
how messed up i am
on the inside

they can sleep
at night and
breath in the day

all because
i smile and
fake it

I Do Not Hate.....

I hate the way you drive me mad
And the way my head won't shut
I hate that you can make me glad
And the burning that won't cut

I hate the way you made me fall]
And how myself i found
I hate my mobile when you call
I hate that stupid sound

I hate the way my heart shivers
The time you call my cell
I hate that thoughts flow like rivers
Inside my head is hell

I hate the way you read my mind
I hate what you make me feel
I hate how I've become this blind
I hate that you are real

I hate it how you stole my pride
I hate that I admit
I hate the way I boil inside
And how my heart you lit

I hate to think that you are small
I hate to think you're not
I hate to think that above all
I might not get a shot

I hate the things you make me do
And how you make me shove
I hate that i do not hate you
I hate it might be love...

Speak the Words

I had enough words to say that I was sorry
I had enough ways to make it go away
But foolish pride has ruined the path before me
I guess the sun can only shine here once a day

I drowned myself in a wave of lost ambition
I filled your world with my hate and disbelief
I trapped my soul in an awkward disposition
And deep inside I hope that no one sees me

Can you feel the pain I hide
I laugh out loud but cry inside
No one's there to save me from my doubt
Cause I don't dare to speak the words out loud

Try to find me in my sorrow
Time won't take away the truth
Can't change the way that we are changing
I hope that we will finally learn to

Can you feel the pain I hide
I laugh out loud but cry inside
No one's there to save me from my doubt
Cause I'm too scared to speak the words out loud

I walk the dessert all alone
No place to rest my mind
The sun is burning in my soul
