plastic smiles
plastered across a crumbling face
people-pleasing effort
pale lips, cracking and bleeding
putting up an useless effort
paper-thin joy, torn at the edges
pangs of pain tearing through
plea to be understood
pages undiscovered and unread
plastic smiles
pathetic efforts at happiness
painting with false colors
pitch-black darkness beneath
preparing for take-off
perhaps into an endless night
plastic smiles
pungent odors of loneliness
prancing through embers of gloom
path-searching travails
placating the inner self
pious intentions gone wrong...
plastic smiles
peel them off
plunge into myself
parade your nakedness
puncture that facade
please please please...
plastic smiles
propriety personified
picture-perfect pretension
written in another class. not exactly a class but sort of a case-study workshop. this is getting to be a bad habit in this college - writing poems in class. will have to learn to pay attention.
