does it show in my eyes?
the pain, the hurt, is it visible
or do you choose to ignore it?
do the shadows take over my face?
can you see the darkness in my features
when i lose myself in the past?
do you watch the memories flood my mind?
when my heart aches with sadness
can you read it in my scars?
do you know when i am hurting?
do i conceal as well as i hope
do you see through me like a ghost?
and if you do, would you care if i gave way?
would you weep by my side
would you move on with grace?
is the vulnerability revealed in my walk?
do i step with weakness
when i move to ignore the pain?
can you feel it in my embrace?
the fragility of my posture
as i try to keep myself together?
and finally, am i incurable?
am i too broken to be fixed
or is there hope for my shattered soul?
