Coffee and lies

I am fooling the world into thinking we are perfect.

I gossip with friends in lies, about how you are still making me blush.

I have had lies on my cheeks for some time now.

I have been faking my lack-luster life to long...

 

As the line goes down and my eyes water from the blow, it dawns on me....

 

this isnt what i wanted in life.

you arent what i wanted.

I would love to see you take this rather matter-of-fact piece and expand it into the promised image in the title. Instead of the blush, perhaps talk about the cream in the coffee or what have you.

As it stands it seems almost more like a journal entry than a poem.
