What Are True Emotions?

I see smiles

I see joy

My mind makes me wonder

Are these true emotions?

I see toil

I see pain

Is our reward... our devotion?

I think out loud

I see the perfect nation broken

Their screams ring in my ears

Are these true emotions?

The little girl had tears in her eyes

If only mother would've stayed inside

I see smiles

I see joy

Perfection is our lives

Not a toy

Perfect white teeth

Chaotic blue sky

The endless hours in now, if they'd only forget..

The "I"

Are these true emotions?

The smile in her eyes

Was this future just a wish

Was your promise only lies
