We Are Never Alone

The tears collect in my eyes
Before they trickle down like rain
It carries a huge burden
Expressing all my pain
They form salty tracks
As they move from eye to cheek
Speaking of those things
That I was too scared to speak
I wipe my face gently
And wipe both my eyes
The truth may not be, but I tell myself
"You're to precious to cry"
But I toughen up,
And though I'm now on my own
We learn through this loneliness
That we are never actually alone

Celestial Lovers

In the darkness of the night
The moon danced by the stars
Counting the hours till he saw the sun
It always seemed so far

For when the night did come
Every night without fail
He was kissed by gentle sunlight 
Eliminating his look so pail

But he never saw this maiden
Who carelessly breathed life into him
For the when the night would disappear 
Along with it, would go him

He continued to love her
Blind or not, he didn't care
For though he never saw her
He knew of her flair

And so every night he died for her
Enclosed in an opaque sheath
In order to allow his beautiful maiden
Another chance to breath

The Masked Face

Behind That Smile

Everyone has a story. 
Don't judge them without knowing 
Keep those judgy stares to yourself
For them life's not all easy going 

Messed up mascara
Blood shot eyes
She's not high. No
Just been crying. She's living a lie

Make up on in the morning
Lip stick for that smile 
That fake, convincing smile
That hides emotions that stretch for miles

Bright eyes lined with all sorts of things 
But have you bothered to look beyond !?
For you will see into her disturbed soul
But you never looked, so you never found 

A beautiful face. A fragile one. 
But it's not all-telling. It never is
For she hides all her emotions
So people don't see the mess she is.
