Ballet

I look away

When you stare at me

I turn to grey

When you’re close to me

The blaze inside

I try to hide

Can’t you see

You’re reviving me

You can’t pretend

You don’t understand

You don’t feel the same

You can’t pretend

You don’t understand

You don’t play the same game

You crushed my nest

Made me feel again

This painful sense

I can lose my head

I lived alone

With an empty space

I never thought

I could ache again

You can’t pretend

You don’t understand

You don’t feel the same

You can’t pretend

You don’t understand

You don’t play the same game
