I Pretend

a poem by Atul Sharma

I pretend to forget you
In deep inside I know
I cannot forget you

I pretend to live
When I know
I already died

I pretend to see stars in nights
When I know
I have lost my moon

I pretend to be something I am not
When I know
This is what we all do

I pretend to be happy without you
When I know
This is lie
