FAMILIAR FACES , UNFAMILIAR HEART

enthusiasticBeach8170 February 20th

This is my 1st time posting a poem here 

Here's my poem, 
                                 

FAMILIAR FACES,AN UNFAMILIAR HEART


This place of supposed familiarity 

Reeks with unfamiliarity while I dwell in a state of no clarity
I entered as human 

But everyday leave with even lesser Acumen

I loose myself there among all the happy faces 

Are they really happy? I question while at my midnight paces

I try and join with people there 

But about me they have the least care
 
In that place I'm like Oil on soup 

My tries of getting out subside as my face starts to droop

At the end of the day it's fine I learn
 
Cuz I become one of those faces even though my heart shrivels due to a scorching burn

With hopes of finding comfort in this familiar yet unfamiliar place 

I enter and leave with a joyous straight face
