Underneath

Sometimes a look,

Can say more than a word,

When a silent rebellion,

Is fighting to be heard,

*

Sometimes a smile,

A chameleon’s disguise,

Is shown on the outside,

But not in the eyes,

*

Sometimes a touch,

Can scorch under skin,

Concealed limitations,

That burn from within,

*

Sometimes a fear,

Can wrap around souls,

Confined aspirations,

Unbreakable walls,

*

Sometimes the friend,

Is the stranger we know,

And the peace that we see,

Is the war they don’t show.
