Can You? - a poem by Honey

"Can you see what I am, which most people think I'm not,

Can you see what I once was, something I mostly forgot.

Can you see beyond my mask, beyond the millions of lies,

Can you see into my soul, the only place where one cries.

Can you see a scared little boy, haunted by memories,

Can you see my look on life is one of fear, not ease.

Can you see my heart breaking, whenever you walk away,

Can you hear my silent plea, wishing you would stay.

No.

You cannot."
