Poem: Whats Wrong?

note: very common, but all too true.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Your eyes reveal your hidden feelings,
emotions so easily read by me.
You may think that you disguise them so well,
but through all the facades, I still see.

There's sadness lurking behind your smile,
and we both know something's out of place.
But only you know your problems and fears,
the only things unrevealed by your face.

I'm begging you to tell me what's wrong,
yet you continue persisting that you're fine.
Once more I ask if everything's alright.
Your denials live in that overused line...

"I'm okay."
"No, I don't think so."
"Just leave me alone!"
"Fine then... I'll go."

You're merely making it worse for yourself
when you push me away and shut me out.
Your feelings locked deep inside of you
is something we can both do without.

But I'll keep my mouth shut just for you,
and I will not stay if I don't belong,
though I can't help my heart's screaming...

Please won't you tell me what's wrong!!
