I don’t pretend to understand the pain that you are feeling.
The rumor mill of your demise is sending loved ones reeling.
You looked me in the eye and told me all was well.
I taught you how to write, so you don’t have to spell it out.
We had our moments in the light, which blinded me from seeing.
Way past the surface of your smile beyond what you were being.
Assault and flattery, it took me by surprise.
I’m still amazed at how you smiled through the lies.
