What Plays Behind

Who plays behind the masks, betrays the guesses

Abundant reasons to convince the well-meaning heart

Swabbing the patience away- exposing unfortunate truths

Content with weeping and looking at life’s melancholic hues

Shall be convinced, but the discontented feeling stays

For whom shall you feel, listen, and care about the next day

Only you will be there listening to a voice sane… it’s painful

Those who have entered life to torment you with lies

Not only you feel about it, but a hundred others are aware

Life passes through these kinds of situations- it’s a routine

Robbing you of the feelings… the betrayal stings the soul
