Undetectable
Fake laughs and
concealed tears
Escape is unavoidable
Unfamiliar faces
seek the weak
Unable to detect the
false confidence
Party goers
pay no mind
To the fly on the wall
Prayers
to go unnoticed
Leave chapped lips
as people greet without knowing
Red wine
stains the white carpet
Glass shrieking
into a shatter
Eyes crawl over
no longer under the radar
Still
no way to make an exit
Hands clasp at skin
trying to find injury
Too bad they don't know
The wounds
are under the surface
Too afraid to break through
Satisfied
the eyes wander away
Relief expelled
in the form of a breath
One remains, a voice of genuine concern
"Are you okay?"
