hiding truths beneath smiles...
telling self the humor is more than worthwhile...
knowing the facts show in mirrors when crossed...
damn reflection twists me every time i pause...
cutting me with the edge of my escape...
bleeding inward as grins drift upon my face...
knowing there's something deeper no one can see...
a different version of me...
beneath the surface of the goof...
as silent as time on the move...
lost n not knowing what it is i need to evolve...
yet i've found who it is i am as a problem solved...
holding on to worth in thoughts fading...
keeping on the hush of the emotions waiting...
ready for the next phase to begin so i know where i belong...
to step away from my own twin staring back for so long...
when even glass n the topside of waters show my expressions...
with the turning of eyes needing a different visual other than depression...
these walls haven't a memory hung...
bare for a reason that awaits the capture of life on the run...
somewhere other than here wasting me away...
turning off light so my shadow cannot catch my escape...
forgetting what it's like to be felt...
even though the healing of pain has made me become self...
i still reside alone n in the dark hoping not to be seen...
i can't seem to get used to the solitude's version of free...
it's displayed as a joy when others catch a glimpse...
knowing damn well my heart has shut down any attempt to live...
stuck in a world where the stillness echos from room to room...
yeah, i crave something new...
