Sadness and Heart

There's a sadness in my heart
that wants to be felt
so bittersweet, it makes me weep
but I couldn't let it be
I hold onto her, a little more than usual
and when she wonders
I excuse her as delusional

There's a sadness in my heart
that wants to be seen
but I couldn't let that be
I tear as she looks the other way
but as she looks back
I seemingly look intact

There's a sadness in my heart
that wants to be felt
and I feel, I feel it only at night
whilst she dreams until light

There's a sadness in my heart
that wants to be seen
and she sees, only after it's too late

and we sleep together, like that.
