Didymus

He caught my eye

Peering across the room

With a suken look that seemed to say

That seemed to beg

To beg for someone

Anyone

To ask him what's wrong

So I stepped closer

And he came more into view

And as if reading my mind

Reading his mind

He began to speak

"Its nothing at all"

He couldn't look at me as he lied

I couldn't look at him as he lied

I'm fine

He tried to say but just couldn't

It's just that I think

Yes?

I think I may be getting close

Close? Close to what?

Close to just giving up.

Giving up on what?

Do you really have to ask

And the sadness is his eyes

Was too heavy to bear

So I could not stay

I could not ask him

What he wanted to ask me

Instead I just

I just turned

And walked away

Away from the mirror
