Sitting there,
smiling with hatred,
listening to their
conversations
of how easy
it truly is.
They find it easy,
their girlfriends find it easy,
their friends find it easy,
their shits find it easy,
and I will too,
they tell me.
Sitting there,
telling my lies of life
to keep the mask cool,
whilst laughing at their stories
of untold horizons I haven’t seen,
new cities I haven’t been
and of people
who also know
the secret.
Sitting there,
drinking my drink
faster than I want to,
listening,
smiling,
and eating
my shame of
the easy life.
Anthony Keers
My name is Anthony Keers and I live in the City of Manchester, England. Writing short stories has been a hobby of mine since an early age, but attempting to write poetry is fairly new. The majority of my work can be seen on my blog: anthonykeers.wordpress.com. If you like what you see, then keep checking it out as more is added weekly. Also, big thanks to Poetree Creations for publishing some great work!
Seems to me you need some music with your poetry?
