The Lies & the

Fake Faces MY FEAR Outside,

By Siya Abhinandan (MYP 1) I seem strong,
Deep inside,
By Soham Guha, Allen George James (MYP 1) I feel torn,

I break down as the
I can tell it’s fake. words instill fear,
It was obvious from the start, The more I break, bullies
Seeing them cackle with a vile grimace. come near,

The lies hide inside their malicious words. I want to be free,
Corrodes the mind into a state of sadness. But you can’t let me,

My lips are stitched closed. I am your target

My heart shies away from the open. You are the bullet,

No let me be in peace,

The most painful part is not their
dreaded words,
But their fake invitations of beaming
smiles.
I cannot retaliate, I cannot refuse.

I simply stay and listen to their feuds.
