The mask

I stared at you

You met my gaze

I turned away

Only to fade

Underneith the mask

That I hold on my face

A changing expression

Unknown by the rest

My eyes observe as you

Sit there, laugh and live

I wait on the outside

Crying on the inside

My eyes are sore

I should look away…

But I'm lost in your features

My heart longs for you everyday…

The secret I hold under this sheild

Of something unknown

Maybe im

Scared

Lost or just plain alone

I should've approached you

Said hi, bye or 'I love you'

Now I'm lonely and your gone

You've most likely moved on

I should have told you…
