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
