I awake to the feeling of being watched,
it appears I have caught the gaze of another.
I look up, but to my dismay I am staring at myself.
I am greeted with a genuine smile, but there\'s further to be examined.
I stare into my own eyes and see a different story,
I see soreness, hurt, someone pleading for help,
To bad nobody will listen,
For my mouth is sealed shut with this smile.
