Relationships

Faces of people you love

Their eyes scanning

Darting rapidly

Failing to grasp onto any signs of false familiarity

They flee the scene

Revealing their unspoken thoughts 

Damaging as they hit around your head

Expectations crying, 

Lying, 

Dying 

On the floor 

Yet the least expected put their hand out

Gesturing for new introductions

For they have always seen you

In the slips of make pretend

Glimmers of your true authenticity

Waiting for your truth to show

Whilst never wavering
