False Happiness.

Softly, your gaze
brushes into my own.

Your warm happy eyes,
beautiful, like you,
search my face
with slight concern.

I smile.
You seem relieved.
Pacified.

Admittedly, my reaction was false.
yet, my eyes can never lie,
they remain the same-
truthfully devoid of sparkle.

thank you.

No, I don't feel like I am faking my emotions usually, I suppose I am getting used to happiness again.
