Okay
May 18, 2017
Your smile always caught me
I believed in it
The happiness lit up
In the corners of your mouth
And in the irises of your eyes
When we played cards with your friends
I saw for the first time
You letting loose
Letting the giddiness take over
And laughs fill the minutes
But that night when we sat in your car
I really saw for the first time
That you weren’t okay
You’re not good
You’re not fine
Now, when I look into your eyes
I see a film over them
A film of happiness
An illusion that you let be
Transparent to me
I know you love me
From the way you act, but
Please let me in
And help you so
You can truly be yourself again
