Poetry

Draped

Written by Jacob Ibrag

We’re sinking while playing chicken. It’s not in

us to leave this fractured situation. Weakness through

stubborn strength. Fictional smiles draped over the pain.

I’ll fall with you just like I fell for you on our first date.

    I loved the “Fictional smiles” and “I’ll fall with you just like I fell for you” lines. Awesome and I understand that feeling. 🙂

    Sounds like love went faster than it’d come…very descriptive.
