One Thing Left

Hide behind the cloak that engulfs you
Watch as everybody walks by
Hidden inside a world that holds you

Hidden behind a cloak that hides you
But still allows the world to see you
Take away beauty, take away lust
Take away everything that hides your heart

Leave yourself to the world’s game
While you do the exact same

An unclouded heart left up to hang
With unclouded eyes meant no to see

Look past all the everyday
Look past all that comes your way
Look past all your eyes can see

One thing left that will not leave
One thing left to hold you tight
One thing left to feel for you
