look closely
are you really sure of what you see
the smile thats always there
or the trembling thats so close behind
the laugh that comes and brightens your day
or the sadness that is hidden carefully away
the eyes that shine and sparkle with fun
or the tears that never fully run
the conversations that last for hours
or the fact that nothing important was covered
look once and see whats on the surface
look twice and you will see what
lies just under the surface
away from prying eyes
