Contained feelings drown in nothingness
Gently swaying in the basement of my soul
No comfort nor unrest, they silently ache
While I skip through life wearing smiles
What will be will be
Everything happens for a reason
A shrug of the shoulder can step around the collisions
That damaged mind and heart
It’s easier to restrict love than to let it be free
Because team love, is rarely played fair by two parts
Beneath hugs and kisses are secrets and scars
Is satisfaction found when blanketed by arms?
Lonely nights or alone nights?
The difference is all in the layers of the mind
But I can’t lie, I can’t fake the same smile love gives me
That’s why an empty smile bears no resemblance
You tell me what you see?
