fake friends

can we be fake friends? 
just for a while can we just pretend to like each other,
until the moment ends.
can we smile cordially have a conversation or two,
have a few laughs tell stories about ourselves,
they don't have to be true.
can we not be real and untrue as could be,
having a great time in each others company,
lets have a glass of wine and make a toast,
to good friends and being so close,
for at this time i expect nothing from you,
except that you're fake, never real, never true.
you see, for a moment this is our reality,
in your head its the way i view you and the way 
you view me.
you see, this way u can't disappoint me the way
that you do,
and those fake smiles i can see right through.
on this day you get to be yourself, be real
no pretense about how you feel.
"so here's to us!" as fake as could be
fake friends forever, you and me

It is true some people are only meant to be apart of our lives for a season. But every bond we form has a reason there was something that drew us to the person in the beginning. good job.

Ha, very original, very drole. It actually captures a current predicament in my life right now rather well! Thanks :)

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
