Hidden Emotions

Your Distance is confusing
as you speak I know 
there is so much more to be told.
 Looking through your eyes 
past that empty look 
is hard to see 
For you have closed your doors 
and tuned your back on the world  
Though you say nothing is wrong 
and that its tears of happiness 
you say you cry 
But your windows are darkened 
so full or uncertanity 
I only wish you would 
let me see through  
Your mind,it works 
mysteriously as those 
of a magicians secrets 
not wanting anyone to know 
the truth behind it all 
Because to do so 
would only unmask 
what has been hidding beneath 
the imposter you have become  
Looking for that easy way out 
you always thought you would find
you run from a past 
you say you want to forget
because of the pain 
that was inflicted upon you 
At the same time 
you refuse to let go 
of the memories 
and that dark past 
that has got best of you 
and still haunts your  mind 
Because the trust you once had
was taken from you,and lost, 
unable to restore itself 
to its fullest 
turning you into 
your own worst enemy 
you hesitste to even think 
about the future 
and what happiness you may find  
You walk arround 
with this fake smile 
but I know better 
I can see right through you  
I've been there before 
I use to be just like you 
not knowing how 
or where to begin 
to pick up the pieces 
and get on with the life 
I once knew 
before I hit rock bottom  
But if you  fill me 
with your worry 
bathe me in your dark light 
I shall recouperate 
knowing that I have you 
and that I have loved you 
past your pain
