'live, laugh ,love'
me,
I'm pretty good at deceiving
but no matter how hard I try
I'm never tricked into believing
I can be happy
I'm not sure it's a thought
I'm capable of conceiving
because I know
in a moment
I might just feel
all the hope
apologetically leaving
me by myself
my chest starts heaving
you see,
I don't get to be lonely alone
the tricky thing is,
my thoughts aren't my own
I'm stuck in a world
where I feel like a clone
lacking in everything
I need to keep functioning
constantly monotone
staring at the jumper
a stranger has worn
'live, laugh, love'
they had to put something,
I suppose
a three syllable assumption
that joy can be chose
where are the words of encouragement
for those with sad prose.
