~*Guarded*~

dont dare to cry
emotions show your hurting
show that what is being said
is getting through

dont look into their eyes
they will see through
to the soul and realize
maybe its to late

just look down
staring at nothing
barely listening
till they give up

they say they are not giving up
they say they will try again soon
to get through this guard
that keeps them from the truth

walk out of the room
staring at the floor
and listen to the ringing
no one else can hear

head is a mess
cant tell one thought from the next
it all jumbles together
chaotic mess

loosen the jacket
walking back in the rain
cant get cold
already numb

keep the face blah
show no emotion
things will pass eventually
till then
i remain guarded
