Authenticity?

Look at all those picture perfect moments
The idyllic life
The merry making, the bright skies
For once, can you dare to look beyond 
Those eyes that shine? 
Was that happiness or tears that hide
A longing? A wound that stings? 
Can you dare to listen to those silent screams?
Not compare a day with your fancy news feed,
Or the impeccability of life on the TV screen?
Can you talk about the dullness, the rotten 
Self destructive pleasures this verse brings,
Bleeding on the drudgery of life, a wee bit of authenticity?!
