Seeing You

I see you

But you don't see me

This is not

Who you were created to be

You smile

But it is all a lie

You cannot fool me

So don't even try

Behind your eyes

I see the pain

You try to hide it

It's driving you insane

Your heart is locked

In a cold stone vault

You are crushed by the fact

That it's all your fault

Your dreams and desires

Seem so far away

You are stuck in a

Monotonous pit of dismay

You are sick of your life

And want to leave this place

Your complete discontentment

Is etched in your face

I wish that I could tell you

How my heart breaks inside

To see you walking in the misery

That is too plain to hide.
