Masquerade

 Different...yet the same

When I see you, I take in everything, a thirsty person finding an oasis

seeing everything

eyes saying more than the face,

holding back, distant, cols

in the eyes

smiling with the face and lips

blank inside

yet, not blank

not empty

wary, scared, worried

about knowing I know, the things you can't say

I know, 

not I think

and I couldn't hold your eyes in mine

or you would see that I do

loss, pain, hurt

never being able to hide my feelings well, they spill out of me, at the most inappropriate times
