Happy people aren’t trying to mock you
Happy people don’t even notice you
Or they fear being swallowed by the likes of you
Couples don’t hold hands to smite you
Couples hold hands to be attached
Or to keep the other hands from wandering
The woman isn’t parading for your eyes
The woman is parading for her own eyes
Or for her rival, best friend’s
The man isn’t posturing for your enjoyment
The man is posturing for his verile egoism
Or to fulfill his inherent simplicism
They aren’t interested in what you have to say
They praise you to flaunt their magnaminity
Or to entice you to flaunt yours to them
Light isn’t there to pierce the darkness
Light is there for the enlightened
Or for those who can’t see in the dark
The world doesn’t care that you’re here
The world doesn’t even know you exist
Or in its death throes has forgotten
The truth is unconcerned by your beliefs
The truth is cold, unerring adamant
So you have your own truths there to protect you
I actually really like this. It’s very realistic… Not exactly pessimistic, but rather eschewing optimism for an objective view. Great work.

The glass isn’t half empty or half full, you just grabbed a glass too big for the amount of liquid … did I do it right? 😉 This is great, realism at its finest

Beautiful, it’s perfectly describes life as it really is! Most of the times I drown in thoughts and continue live in anxiety.
