"Behind Your Smile" © 2006
Behind your smile, I see you're sad,
sadness I know to well.
It's caused by pain,
increased by strain,
of living your own private hell.
Behind my smile, you see I'm sad,
sadness you know to well.
you know that my heart,
has been to, torn apart,
and I'm living, my own private hell.
I'm lost, in your eyes,
past the scars, from the lies,
to gaze on your bruised, fragile soul.
in my eyes, can you see?
past the scars, that are me?
see as well, lies have taken their toll.
I smile, this time real,
at the fear that i feel,
in the wall, 'round my heart, now a door.
somehow opened by your hand,
in the doorway, now you stand,
afraid; abused by life; yet wanting more.
To your heart, 'round the wall,
rugged ground and I fall.
I'm cut by shards of broken dreams of old.
bits of happiness and cheer,
hopes now shattered by your fear,
here once was life, now all is dark and cold.
Behind the sadness, I see you smile,
A smile reflected by me..
for a moment, pain at bay.
And the sadness gone away,
happy. Now if you could only see.
the end
