12th July, 2009 - You can call it Fake

Haven’t you noticed that everyone
Shines on photos, as bright as the sun
A thousand faked smiled that were caught with light
Just for offering a beautiful sight

I bet not the half of all these days
Weren’t as happy as it looks they may
But all of these people were told to smile
And act to be happy just for a while

So are photos supposed to be called ‘memories’
If no one’s so happy like it seems?
If they put on a brave face, they just try to bear
Because truly great moments in life are rare

So why don’t we take photos as we feel now
While others for their acting could take a bow
At least we are honest, even if we cry
We can’t change all habits but at least we try
