If Only You...... Poem by StaceyLeigh Olner

If only you could see past what I say,
Look straight into my hazel eyes,
And see how I really feel,
Behind the fake smile,
Is tears and fear,
Behind my hazel eyes is a load of problems no one can solve,

If I say yeah im ok,
Do you believe me? ,
Or see deep into my hazel eyes,
And see my pain, fear and tears,

If only you could see the real me,
under this fake person,
If only you understood me,
I would love to tell someone who would,
Listen but i cant,
I dont know how,
Im not used to having people their to listen to me,
If only you understood why I cant tell you,

If only you could see past what I say,
look straight into my hazel eyes,
And see how I really feel.

Dont be mad at me for not telling you.

I wrote this poem while i was down, this is also the poem that had won a competition :)
