smokescreen

by Antwan Fields - Aries

im laughing with you one second, crying the next
am i depressed?? am i going west??
mamma's kicking baby bird out of the nest
he puts up  a brave fight, but on his face are the tears that he can't resist
but he leaves and he puts up a smokescreen
he seems unemotional, even kind of cold
his feelings are raging, his fury being held in though
and he stumbles over his words and his thoughts don;t flow
askng himself is he capable of love
and if so, when its time to go above
will that love be recognized? will it be seen
as good or evil that he lived through his teens
the smoke covering himself is thick and black,but all he's
worried about
is the plume of black smoke rising above his track

Reason for writing:

    "he" is me
