I look at you
and I see it in your face
you think you hide it,
but I see you
I see the hurt
the dark circles beneath your eyes
and the quiet plea
dancing on your bottom lip
too afraid to be voiced
top afraid to be heard
because you're too afraid
to be hurt
and I just want to take you and
wrap you up in my arms
hold you, console you
tell you things that you'll believe
but you don't seem to believe
anything anymore
so I'll just look at you
and see the pain in your fake smile
and I'll smile back
and I'll hear the attempted deception
when you tell me that you're just tired
and I'll say me too
I know you're broken inside
I can see it in your face
violets are blue
and so are you
