Weeping tears from all the lies.

I watch them all from time to time,

Silver drops, some of them mine.

I want to say that what I hear,

Is something false that slips in my ear.

Yet, I can not deny the truth,

It leaves me with a bitter tooth.

Harsh whispers swim around the air,

Of these hurtful words I must wear.

A blackened cloak of words,

All of which are heard.

I wont tell of their despise,

When they sob and choke out their cries.

They act as if I'm not there,

Yet, they try to smile and seem as if they care.

But, I am not a fool,

In this game I will not duel.

They see me as simply a child,

Blind to all the surrounding guile.

They don't know of what I see,

Oblivious is something I will not be.

I see the cracks in their grins,

Trying to smile through all their sins.

They want to leave me all alone,

Of these desires I have known.

This is why I've found another,

Someone who acts just like a brother.

That is why I look in the mirror,

For I found someone dearer.

I am not a doll to be put up on a shelf,

For inside of me, I have found myself.
