"Let's Pretend"

is it really

"pandering"

for anyone

to reassure

me

ever

of

anything

can I rely

on any

of my

"family"

or "friends"

who will

still be

there

tomorrow

the next day

who will be

with me

until the end

or is

the whole

of my

life

one long game of

let's pretend

people pretending

to be

my family

and pretending

to be

my friends
