Delusive Smiles

I'm walking alone on the street,
listening to my own heartbeat.
It feels like I'm constantly dying,
so hard to maneuver this suffering.

I've responded to world's views,
ignoring mine was an abuse.
At the edge of a shifty time,
I caught myself in a trap and lie.

Fallacy lost me in life's game,
only me should be blamed.
I haven't done my mere best,
to surpass its excruciating test.

Misery and pain with me remained,
I thought I would be turning insane.
No one even bothered to care,
heartstrings were agonizing to bear.

I was once lost but now am found,
cutting all deceits with no bound.
I will firmly stand my ground,
giving no breaks to face another round.
