"Am I The Joke?"

I signed up for a romance story
I was expecting a nice sweet melodrama
With the symphony being heard in the night
And the warm sun shining on our skins
So why is this so dramatic?
Why are there guns and bombs?
Shattered windows, broken bones
Broken hearts, shattered dreams
Underwhelming plot and scenes
Bland characters that fade in the background
This love is a comedy act
I laughed at first because they told me,
Laughter makes everything better
But it isn't funny, not anymore
My cheeks are tired of smiling
Muscles are wasted in a game of pretending
Is everything just a joke?
Am I the punchline?
Am I the laughing stuff?
Am I just a joke to you?
I write this pathetic poem as I doubt myself
I look in the mirror and see a clown
Smile fool, I SAID SMILE!
Look at yourself and those lies
Should I continue this role of a fool?
Should I wake up in this beautiful dream?
Where you are the comedian, this is a comedy
And I, the stupid I in my poems is the only joke to be seen.
