My tears full of desperation

My body trembles in fright

Alone in the darkness

Black as midnight

Myself becomes pity

How long it took to realize

Feelings so forgotten

Right in front of my eyes

Yearning for the emotion

The ability to fall in love

Surrounded in darkness

No stars above

I look in the mirror

See the tear strewn face

See the beautiful person

I want to take her place

Envy becomes one

Locked deep in my heart

So afraid to feel

Don't know where to start

I hide behind my curtain

A thin mask to hide my face

No one sees the tears

Because a smile takes their place
