Beautiful Disguise
The soft sweet essence
Of your beautiful skin;
Drawn in a dream,
With a tantalizing grin...
A touch of elegance,
And eyes to intrigue;
A loss of reality,
And no words to speak...
Moments seem so rare...
With this shimmering light in your eyes;
Masked in broken hopes,
Along side the useless lies.
With tainted heart in hand...
Will you take another chance?
If I gave to you my soul,
Would you take a second glance?
Alone and secluded...
Drifting, in search of another place;
With untamed dreams in your eyes,
Despite the expression upon your face...
Lost in a world so cold,
Does your hope still even exist?
In moments such as these,
The thoughts seem so hard to resist...
Hiding behind your beautiful disguise...
But was it ever worth it?
Living to run from those that care...
Because you’re too afraid to admit;
All of this, you’ve done to yourself,
Out of fear of what’s to come...
Chances for goodness slowly disappear
In the rearview mirror as you run.
