Slow Heartache

seeing through people
is rarely fun
in truth;
you never get much done
and I remember
those days when I was young
and how I threw it away
on the hopes and wishes
of better days
seeing through people
just shows lies
that deeper inspection
of the core inside
and we believe that we can hide
that no one sees us
for who we really are
truth is, we are all on show
our inner thoughts
all aglow
even if we choose not see them
even if we choose not to believe them
seeing through people
is a kind of heartache
a slow one;
it cracks and starts to break
