Shhh
I understand it’s a secret, my dear.
That’s why we hide behind our masks.
I know your eyes, I’d know them anywhere.
They were in my dreams last night.
And the night before.
I’d love to know your name and see you smile, but I understand.
Put your mask back on, my dear.
What I want and what is proper are two different things.
Please do not break the rules on my account.
I will not have us both out-cast for neither my humble wants.
Nor my impulsive needs.

The Mask
There's one thing about me,
you never will guess,
Unless I wish to tell you,
which, right now, is a yes.
You see, I've been hiding,
something from you,
And I figured it was time,
to spit out what's true.
For as long as I,
can remember,
Starting way back,
in a younger December,
I've worn a mask,
and it's quite perfect,
Over the years,
I've learned to collect,
My feelings inside,
this bottled self,
And store them away,
on the highest shelf.
So, all you can see,
and all you can hurt,
Is only a piece of me,
meant to divert,
The pain and suffering,
I fear will come,
If I make a wrong move,
if I start to succumb,
To the

Choking On Nothing
Take my holographic
expression and bend it into
any shape
you feel like, because
today
I want you to be happy.
The ocean will come and go and
the stinging nettles
will bite,
but I'll be
here and I'll keep
smiling
for you. Take hold
of my hand and
I know
I don't know all the answers,
but I'll try my best
to stop you from choking.

If
If you would stop screaming,
Just for one minute,
You'd see I'm not listening,
And I don't regret it
If you would just listen,
You might understand,
I didn't need a shoulder,
All I needed was a hand
If you would just hear me,
So I could stop repeating,
I wouldn't be up all night,
When I could be sleeping
If you would just love me,
Like you say that you do,
Then you would just pay attention,
When I'm speaking to you
If you would stop screaming,
Just for one minute,
You'd see I'm not listening,
But you just don't get it
