Crossed Love And Straight Betrayal
I wear the smile they want to see,
The one that hides what's hurting me.
A life of rules, of things unspoken,
A heart so bruised, yet never broken.
I walk the path they've made for me,
A map I never chose to see.
Every step feels far from mine,
Chasing dreams that aren't divine.
I look at you, and then I feel,
A truth so real, it starts to heal.
But words are trapped behind my lips,
A love that's swallowed in silent grips.
They speak of duty, of what's expected,
But they can't see how I've been affected.
I'm not the girl they want to find,
I'm just a shadow of a heart confined.
And yet, when you are near, I know,
A warmth within begins to grow.
But how can I let this feeling show,
When all they want is what I owe?
So here I stand, between two worlds,
One of promises, one that twirls
With whispers of a love untold-
A secret that I cannot hold.
