Pretending

Can’t hack it on your own
All the money you’ve blown

Using peoples names
To get fortune and fame

You’ve reached your peak
And things look oblique

Pretend if you want
And act nonchalant

A confidant is near
To give you some cheer

Your decision to make
You know what’s at stake

Thanks for the cheer dear. I needed that after yesterday. At least I was right. But being right sometimes is a heavy price. And I really do need a confidant. Hugs Bill

Great one Marilyn...it is so expressive of how many go through life, too sad that they miss what's important.

This is a great write.. Sometimes people think the road to happiness is paved in green. I have a family member that really and truly believes that. someday I hope he wakes up and realizes what he has thrown away in his persuit of monetary riches.
