Happiness is in the eye of the beholder
Happiness is in the eye of the beholder.
I listened to what you said.
I thought about the things you made me do.
I was alone and afraid.
At least that’s what you told me.
I thought that there was no one else but you.
I felt that you were there to help me.
But I was wrong.
You made me feel things.
You made it seem so hard.
The emptiness inside over whelmed me.
But I kept strong.
I hid you from others.
I kept you out of mind.
I thought you were gone.
But you were just waiting.
Waiting for me to come back into your arms.
And you brought me down.
At every moment I thought about you.
Just empty.
Nothing but tears could feel me up.
I cried out to you to leave.
But did you listen?
You are hiding.
And I’m hiding too.
