Pictures of You

I can see within your eyes, the sadness in your soul I see it crying out in every picture of I have of you There may be a smile on your face, but I can see the toll A misery buried deep within, a brightness gone from the hue Of what secrets are you wary, what burdens do you carry, That make expressions from your features seem so contrary That you cannot seem to share, that took away you’re lively flair Are you that unaware, that I can see to the depths your despair Release the sadness from your mind, Open up to a heart that will be kind. You need not live in that unforgiving world I await for your gladness to again be unfurled What ever this misery would be, you need not be alone And there will be a new picture, after the dark bird has flown.
