Let's All Pretend.

Let's all pretend that we care of each other and that we love one another. Let's all pretend that we don't hate those who have wronged us. Let's all pretend that we are all happy and contented being this kind of human. Let's all pretend that we are living so well in this hateful world. Let's do that and let us all see what's going to happen next.

Let's all pretend that we are not sinners. Let's continue faking each smile and laugh out loud like we really mean it. Let's all do the best that we can to fool the world that we are having the best day of our lives. Let's all pretend that we are all justified with this fucking system. Let's all believe that we are not going to die. Let's believe in the lies of forever. Let's all pretend that love is the most amazing feeling. Let's pretend that no one is going to cheat. That everyone is honest and loyal and faithful and clean. Let's pretend that we are all rich. That we can buy everything. That life is not a joke but a mere blessing. Let's all pretend that we don't get hurt. That we can forgive everyone and that moving on is just a piece of cake. Want some more? Keep reading.

Let's all pretend that being broken is just in your imagination. That being lied to is not possible. Let's all pretend that we're all lucky. Let's pretend that shooting star is real. Let's all believe that prayers are being answered. That our wishes wish will surely come true. That no one is poor but just lazy. That no one is ugly, just not extremely beautiful. That no one is fat , just a little bit heavy. That no one is short, just too cute for a keychain. That no one is being left behind. That we all walk in the same pace at the same time. Let's all pretend that it's all true. Let's do that.

Let's all pretend that the one we love and adore will always reciprocate our feelings. That the one we cherish will also do the same. That everyone can understand us. That we don't overthink. That we don't salivate over spilled milk. That we don't need to cry a river. That we don't need to hear someone scream because of excruciating pain. That no one is going to get hurt somewhere out there in the border. Let's all pretend deaf and blind. Let's pretend that this world is not the same place that bury us with debts and bills. Let's pretend that this place is beautiful enough to push us to our limits. Let's all pretend that depression is not real. That anxiety is just a word in the dictionary. That friends are always true and that there's no snake crawling in your face.

Let's all pretend because that's where we're good at. Pretending that we're all amazing with our rotting souls and decaying hearts. Pretending that we're all rich with our bouncing bank accounts. Pretending that we're all okay , just simply dying everynight. Pretending to be that someone who's not even half of who we really are. Let's all fake it until we make it.

Thank you, next.
