~~~
All alone in this crowded room.
My eyes meet one...another.
They do not see me for what I am.
They see a smile on my face;
The lies that I'm holding, in order to keep myself together.
They do not know the pain I feel.
Their smile is real.
So I am alone in the crowded room;
Waiting for someone to see through;
To save me from myself, from the loneliness...
That has overcome me;
Controlling me.
I am a slave to this feeling;
Waiting for something better,
Suffering in myself,
Needing a savior.
