The Hurt That You Hide

by Timothy r

I wish you wouldn`t laugh when we talk
I can see through your admirable disguise
The hurt that you hide, deep inside
Causing you to build impenetrable walls

I wish you would smile without tears
I can see loneliness through your legendary eyes
The hurt that you hide, deep inside
Begging for a life without fear

I wish you could feel the sun on your face
I can see the darkness that dulls your shine
The hurt that you hide, deep inside
Locking the doors to your loving place

I wish you could open your heart
I can see myself cutting though the binds
The hurt that you hide, deep inside
Leading you into my open arms

I wish you could see us one day together
I can see happiness in our lives
The hurt that you hide, deep inside
Becoming a nightmare gone forever
