i look at you

 and i  can see it in your face

you think you hide it 

but i see it

i see the hurt

the dark circles beneath your eyes

and  the quiet plea

too afraid to be voice

to afraid  be heard

because you are too afraid

to be hurt

and i just want to take you and 

wrap you up in my arms

hold you, console you

tell you things you will believe

but you do not seem to believe

anything, anymore

because you have been deceived far 

too many times

so i will just look at you

and see the pain in your fake smile

and i smile back

and i will hear the attemtep deception

when you tell me that  you are just tired

i will say me too

i know you are broken inside 

i can  see it in your face

violets are blue, so are you.
