Truth.

It's funny.

Everywhere I look I see people.

But not really people.

I see them.

But I am not seen.

Quiet I remain.

But awake is not my game.

I am distant

I do not belong.

Alone in my own spirit.

A tear drop falls and sympathetic faces turn to me.

"What is wrong?"

As if I wasn't upset before their words appraised me.

Quiet I remain.

The stares turn away

I am no longer noticed.

Free.

Free of their stares.

The piano plays in the distance

My heart is still beating

But I'm the back of my mind...

I'm..

Not really there.

Quiet I remain.

Unnoticed

My tears fall inside my crestfallen shell.

Hiding is my main physical.

Yet my love remains in vain.

Tied to a man that loves me.

But not I.

Some moments I am in awe.

I do my best to keep my mouth covered.

But sometimes the words seep through.

Dreams pale.

Heart.

Heart beating

Quiet I remain.
