Reality

Reality by Princess Ophelia
 
You look but you don't see,
Focused on your own problems
You stare right through me.
 
Head held high,
I walk on by.
You'd never know all I want is to cry.

Sometimes I wish you'd care
Enough to realize that what meets the eye
Is nowhere near what is really there.
 
You accept it without a thought
When I say I'm fine,
But what if I'm not?
 
Would you be willing to sit through my tears?
Because all it takes to make it ok,
Is to to feel you near,
To know you'll help me face my fears.
 
To know you'll be there,
To know you care.
 
But sadly,
I know that this dream will never be
Reality.
