The Look of the Outside
What is it about
 A certain look
 That doesn’t make 
 One wonder
 What’s truly happening
 
 On the inside?
 
 Is it the
 Plainly seen
 Innocence?
 Its frailty?
 
 It’s the look
 That screams:
 “Save me
 From this prison”
 
 The pleas are ignored
 
 Can’t they see
 The obvious pain
 In that fragile
 Expression
 
 No
 
 For 
 The pain,
 The anguish
 
 Is easily hidden
 By a small,
 Simple
 
 Smile
