Apart

Show me a glance that says you care
A silent smile between us share.
Save me your pity and false remorse,
Flaunted ego and empty discourse.
Have I hurt you, that you shy away?
Or something within me that’s got you so afraid?
Why don’t you see me as you see yourself:
Clean and pure, in no need of help?
Until then, our lives remain apart
Until you see, and see within my heart.
