Expression

Laughing face
Lovely smile
Mask the pain
All the while
Vacant eyes
Can't tell lies

She left
He played
They laughed
Betrayed

Different friends
Another man
Change of place
Change of plan
Start the cycle
Over again

She tempted
He lied
They're indifferent
You cried

Getting harder
To keep your face
From giving away
The wretchedness
Inside

Broken pieces
Withered dreams
Angry resentment
Why me?

Lashing out
Thrashing in
Cutting pieces of my skin
Can't hurt you
I'll hurt me

Deep need
Love cries
No answer
Heart dies
What is peace?
Why lies?

Love hurts
So deny
Stifle hunger
Live a lie
I'm okay
Without

Can't take
Another day
Maybe try
A different way

Another friend
Some of old
A new guy
or girl
Guarded heart
Look at me
Work of art

Holding back
In reserve
Give little
They don't deserve
Any more

Empty
Incomplete
Unreal
Dead end street

Is there
Real love
To be found?
Looked up
Down
All around

Seek him
And you will find
A love that will
Never
Be unkind

Love real
Love true
Faithful
Unconditional
Never ending

Ultimate
Expression

A Life
Given
For you

For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. - Matthew 7:8

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. - John 3:16
