Enigma

There is no way to knowIf your praise is genuineYour "genuine" praise Is plastered everywhere

There is no way to know If yours is real careYour care is handed outYou say, to make things "fair"

Your smile is bright But so is your darkness darkSo supportiveBut so your silence is stark

You never volunteer about youYour interest; gossip and fooAs if you're a young girlObserving the monkey cage in a zoo

What's a poor boy to do?Wanting to believe it's all trueYou say, "think what you want to"You don't care if we bid adieu

Still, I'll miss youBecause I know There's an injured little girl insideShe didn't need to hide...
