Pieces That We Never Show


You stand there
Looking right at me
I can see the gears turning
Trying to figure me out
I know you never will
Like I’ll never know you either
Pieces that we never show
Hidden and locked away
For our protection
As well as each other’s
Things we’ve kept in the dark
Never letting the light or air in
Fearful of the world knowing
Deep, dark secrets
Yet you keep staring
Matching the way I look back
Neither of us willing to give
To let the other win
We don’t know how to let it go
To move past moments
To let each other go
To move on
To give each other a pass
To get it back to good
