It's all in the details .
The way I stop smiling when you look away.
How my answer become shorter
My laughter a little more forced every time,
You'll sometimes catch me with a distant look in my eyes .Yet you ignore it ,
As if I'm staring into the big nothingness that surrounds me
Completely gone.
Lost.
Alone .
You may find that I distance myself from you
Making excuses
Filling you with little covering lies
"I'm just tired "
I'll say and laugh it off every time.
You should pay more attention to the way I cover my skin and starts to hate every part of it
I won't take your compliments
And if I will it's only a
"Thank you "
And I will take it for lies
Although I may say it with a big smile look out for the emptiness that follows.
Never look away because its impossible to spot.
