Pretend

Pretend like I'm not here
So I can watch you weave
your deception
inside my skin, pull it tight
I'll still stay near, don't fight

I won't shed a tear
so I may see you clearly
Your face
Find pain behind your grin
Recollected now, your darkest sin

Don't be faining timid
I'm imbedded in your mind
Your concience
With secrets lost and hiding
They linger there, no repair

Your heart so hurt, so livid
At my new found knowledge of
Your weakness
Don't play your games with me
You may be blind, but still I see
