To behave as they expect (10)

Portraying myself perfectly
Reflecting what they want to see
Examining how they react
Twisting falsehoods into fact
Every morning is the same
Never change just play the game
Don that smile, stretch it wide
It’s not enough, at least I tried
Need to stop, it just won’t end
Give up fighting, just pretend.

~ Andrew

I realise I write a lot about putting on a mask and pretending, make of that what you will. Not the most polished piece, just an idea I wanted to put to pixelated paper
