Stop pretending

Stop watching and acting like you care,
Don't hide yourself behind that mask,
Just so that you can stare,
Sooner or later, someday You'll have to remove it,
And you know you will be ashamed of wearing it.
In all this time, one thing has been confirmed,
that even if you spend time with me,
share your thoughts, true feelings with me,
Just one person is enough to turn you against me,
Or maybe you got annoyed and left me without saying a word,
So here's the thing, I know quite well who I am,
The question is, Do you ??
And if you do, then stop pretending,
stop acting like someone you're not,
'coz when the times get hard and that shell breaks down,
entirely devastated, in a cage you'll be caught,
You wanna see others happy,
but will it be of any use,
if it doesn't make you feel good ?
I know my faults, I know I hurt you at times,
made you feel bad and suffer,
But I had my own limitations, reasons,
So I had apologized,
And you said "It's Okay",
I know I can't heal those wounds,
and I blamed myself  for it all the time.
But then, when you know how it feels,
you should have told me right away
that "It's NOT okay",
The point is how could you inflict the same damage
When you know suffering ?
But hold on, I have no interest in this blame-game
that you are playing,
Because the thing is,
I know quite well who I am,
Do you ???
and if you do, then stop pretending.
