Facade
I looked at the world today through your eyes
What I saw, was that you are not wise
You are afraid of love, you choose to run and hide
There is no one in whom you can truly confide
You shut down when things get deep
You run on automatic until at night, when you fall to sleep
Then the dreams in your head, cause you to awaken to weep
And you wonder what in the end will you reap
In the break of the morning, on goes your disguise
To cover up the hurt that you hide deep inside
"This is all there can be to life",you have surmised
This is why I say that you are not wise.
I wish you could see that real love does exist
But you choose to believe that it is just a myth
And so you continue to resist
Even when you are in love's midst
