Faux

Happiness upon those faces
Smiles spread as far as the rays of sun
Laughter fills the air, like music in a concert
Nothing can change how I felt in those moments
Pure bliss, yet my mind screams... abort!
 
Friends and family gather. Rejoice!
Sharing stories at soirees
Joyous colors shine within their spirits
Whilst in the mirror all I see is darkness emanating
Seeping and infecting through my crevices
 
Light shines all around me
But with lux comes an even greater nox
A dubious smile blends with disgust
Looking upon the world and feeling unempathetic
Faux happiness is the aesthetic
