The Front

Some duders only dream
that they could be
in my shoes at this very moment,
representing the classiest ladies
around.
Others only wish
that they could follow
each & every footstep
I am taking,
just to prove that their love
for so & so is genuine.

Others still do nothing
but talk, every word they speak
nothing but a flood of noise.
And for what?
They say their love for
so & so is undeniable,
for real. Yes, but what
does that tell me?

Their love for the sisterhood
of their choice is all for show
& they know it
even if they won't
find the muster
to say so personally.
What words they speak
are just a front for them
to hide behind,
to act out their professed honesty
& act out their so-called lives.
If ever
they picked the wrong time to
reveal their true colors
it should not have been now.

For once,
the masks & costumes need to be
put away. The least
anyone could do at this juncture,
when it comes to revealing
all along who the love of their lives
truly is,
is to be honest,
to do away with this front,
this facade of myths & frauds
we keep creating for ourselves.
It is now time
to start becoming genuine.
