And thats how I became a FAKE!

And thats how I became a FAKE!

A Poem by Bhavya Kaushik

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

AND…THAT’S HOW I BECAME A "FAKE"

 

 

I always used to lie awake at night…
Searching for the real person inside…
But I never found myself back….
And that’s how I became a fake…

Oh! My heart doesn’t beat right…
And increasing my pain every night….
I can’t get you out of my sight…
I’m living without any hope of light…

I know I can’t turn back time...
But I really want you back in my life…
So…for that reason I gave you “whole of me”…
To be the kind of person you want me to be…
But you never returned me myself back...
And that’s how….Yes that’s how…
I became a FAKE…

But I never pretended that I’m broken inside…
Always tried to give a false smile from outside…
And let no one know the story of some thousand tears….
Behind that single smile of mine…
I still remember that day when I gave you “whole of me”…
To be the kind of person you want me to be…..
But you never returned me myself back…
And that’s how…yes that’s how….
I became a FAKE….

And…Still I shed a tear every night…
Still searching for the real person inside…
But I can’t find myself back….
And I think so…now you know…
How I became a FAKE…
Why you never returned me myself back??
And that’s why…and yes that’s why...
I became such a FAKE…..
I became such a FAKE

But I never pretended that I'm broken inside�
Always tried to give a false smile from outside�
And let no one know the story of some thousand tears�.
Behind that single smile of mine�
I still remember that day when I gave you "whole of me"�
To be the kind of person you want me to be�..
But you never returned me myself back�
And that's how�yes that's how�.
I became a FAKE�.

So many people can relate to this, Bhavya. I wrote a story entitled, "Taking Off the Mask of Pretense" and a poem called "Behind the Smile" you might want to read when you have a moment... Not sure if you have ever read them, but they both made me think of some of this write. It is so easy to pretend and to hide how we are really feeling, putting on the "fake smile" while we are dieing inside. Repressing our feelings is so easy to do. The sad thing is that it tends to come out in other ways.

You have pegged emotions so many of us can relate to. Well done!

I found that sense of frustration and self anger in it..
A if you are angry from yourself only for being so fake..
But believe me dude...you are very real and original !

This piece is all about the sense of frustration and angriness from yourself only to be the kind of person you are today.
Very nice

This poem is full of rage and anger, as if you are shouting at that person.
Dark write.

I found pain and suffering everytime when you wrote
"But I never found myself back�.
And that's how I became a fake�"
Great write and moved me very well.
