Artificial Joy, fake happiness
Delight sparkles around my face
Bliss radiates of my face
My smile is seen from miles away
The glow around my body
Illuminates the air
Covered Sadness, buried depression
My heart cries out in agony
But the cries are drowned by my fake glee
My soul is engulfed in darkness
The screams of my devastating thoughts
Echo repeatedly in my mind

Yeah I sense a strong vibe here with an echoing cry for help. I understand that feeling to play the referee amongst your friends or to keep sanity intact. After reading your poem reminds me of a late actor whom adored us with his thriving comedy. Robin Williams was a successful comedian and actor. However, he developed a deeper sickness being truly unhappy in which dwelled beanth his soul.
So as that being said. Do not try to be the third wheel always but at least the shining light to see the reflection you've gave off to them.
Another emotional piece poet.
I know the exact feeling!
Another good write. Thnak you for sharing.
Well written and expressed
