My tears full of desperation
My body trembles in fright
Alone in the darkness
Black as midnight
Myself becomes pity
How long it took to realize
Feelings so forgotten
Right in front of my eyes
Yearning for the emotion
The ability to fall in love
Surrounded in darkness
No stars above
I look in the mirror
See the tear strewn face
See the beautiful person
I want to take her place
Envy becomes one
Locked deep in my heart
So afraid to feel
Don't know where to start
I hide behind my curtain
A thin mask to hide my face
No one sees the tears
Because a smile takes their place
