THOUGHTS UNTOLD


      Have you come to bring sadness

      You have that choice

      So tell me

      I want joy from you

      When you walked through the door

      I saw a smile

      But hidden deep

      Is there more, something else

      What secrets do you hold

      Close to your heart

      I can't see beyond your eyes

      Yes they pierce into my soul

      I see in you what I want

      Tell me what is real in you

      Of your dreams

      Of thoughts untold

      I ponder what is authentic in you

      Then I turn to the mirror

      In you there is me

      Will I bring sadness to you
