It is better to not speak and let people think you are a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.


Is happiness real or
just something you feel?
just a brief emotion or maybe
a form of lotion used to cover up
the hurt that's real.
Who can tell if what you show
is what some call inner glow or
just you being fake, it's a habit
like a pond that will
grow to a lake.
You must weed out all the
lies and trash,
only keep what deserves a
sash.

"Do what you want. If it's something you'll regret in the morning, sleep late."

this is a really interesting conceptt. it really made me think about happiness in a different way, which i guess was your point wasnt itt? i feel like theres a lot of emotion in this poem too, like you really wrote from your heart and wanted others to understand your pain. great job, five stars :)
