I see you there, do you see me?

I see you there,  looking at me or through me?

I see you there, ignoring me or listening to me?

The worry in your eyes, you seem so detached

No one else notices, oblivious to the facts

Sitting there, with your guard up and a smile on

Sitting there, acting brave and strong

For the ordinary observer not one who cares

You are fine, not scared

Don’t you know I don’t care

Whether your perfect or full of flaws

Down

My eyes are bright with unshed tears

Heart burdened with abundant fears

Is there someone who can see me now?

Past the laughs to the unsaid frowns

 

Telling myself to keep hope alive

When its so much easier to let it die

Oh how the heart aches in pain

While I struggle to keep my smile in place

 

This act is futile,who am I kidding?

Fooling myself I can’t deny

Is it my fault? I think it is

That I can’t explain anything even to myself
