Loved Ones
These are real tears
With reason in the water they hold
The tears are held in a bottle
Till the bottle holds no more
They spill over the surface
Every once in a while
But then they bottles empty
But filled with guile
The smile is a mask
We have to put on
Mix it with the real one
And and something goes wrong
Never remove it
Never let them see
The hurt and pain
That lay inside me
Drooping head
Fallen down form the neck
No one ever realizes
It hangs for reason
No reason to show
No way to bring it up
But a way with it
Back under the chin its tucked
The pain is real
The hurt doesn’t go
Only love from the one
Is enough to show
To wipe the tears
And clean the bottle
To burn the mask
And show the real thing
To pick up a head
and make it it stick
