You

You let everyone use you
Let everyone demand you
You take everyone's words
And cry over the ugly truth of the world
You take yourself apart
To build a piece of art
That could lift up their hearts
Because you can't do the part as you really are
You cover yourself head to toe
Letting them see only what you show
Your ugly truth, they already know
No need to hide it anymore
But you must keep the act up
So as not to ruin the show
People are starting to leave
They're ready to get up and go
They're okay with the lies
They prefer the disguise
So, you hide again and lie again
As long as you are not a pain
There is nothing for you to gain
But there is no need anyway
Since you don't even count in this game they play

Poems are nice. You can say anything without it making sense to the person listening. This doesn't even make sense to me, lol. But it rhymes so 👌🏼
