No One Knows

What a fool I’ve played

I can’t deny what doesn’t change

Can’t expand in what won’t grow

Now is the time to let my feelings go

What I’m feeling is pain

I blame no one

But the person in which it came

The person that I see

Rejection

My reflection stares back at me

Didn’t deny me from being

As I denied myself from believing

All people are deceiving

For no one truly knows

The darkness of another’s heart

Nor the strength of their inner glow

How can we ever believe in another

We are blind to each other

Never to discover

The person behind the reflection

That’s smothered
