honesty in denial
like how you love me
my soul is attached
and I knows yours is too
aching epiphany, I am not all that is desired
quiet resolve, I won’t let it burn
just a silent knowledge… it is
secrets of the heart are written in private love notes, on your face
my heart breaks a little
you know I know, it’s just what it is
my time has passed
and the colors out there are brighter
out of familiarty passion fades between us
suddenly I’m in camo blending with the background
nearly invisible
sometimes I can’t hide the ugly jealousty
my face contorts and you win
I’ll let you sing your songs
and look for my replacement
before I have resigned
hurtful need I still love you
