Behind this face reveals another mistake

From true beauty hidden by folds of uncertainty

The smile once on my face, prevails to be inside in another place

Not in my mind, not in my thoughts just on my face while my insides rot

The laughter, the joy is a cover for the feelings no one has discovered

It’s dark, cold, and alarming while the outside gleams bright and un-harming

Where did my thoughts tremble, where did my thoughts sought to go

How the insides so eager to glow

When I’m on my own, do I dare to remember what made me feel so alone?

I walk past and forget the rest

For when I’m alone I am a mess

But when I’m with you my dear, I’m at rest.
