If you Really Knew.

Okay, say I'm okay. Haven't had the time to think about anything else but you today. Too busy running things around in my head- thoughts of words left unsaid. Oh, won't I get up and do something about it? Can't fight back cause I don't know how, but I can fight back tears easily. Laying down under the sky. Not free, but trapped by lies. An invisible force lies within my soul. I want to leave, can't let go. Don't. Touch. Me. I can't feel a thing. Nerves burnt, feelings warped, calloused heart that stings. Don't. You. Look at me. You pierce right through. My lies hide the hurt inside. If you really knew.
