When I'm with you

Folder: 
2005

I walk through this world as a nobody, just a face

and my heart it feels so hollow, just an empty space

evrything is artificial, nothing is even real

and everyone is wearing their masks they don't even feel

love is just a commercial thing that people abuse

but me I just want to hold to it tight and never lose

but people step all over me and leave their footprints

and sometimes I just want to run away and just give in



chorus

but when I'm with you

I'm alive again

I exist in a world

where no one needs to pretend

when I'm with you

I'm not lost anymore

I'm right where I belong

I'm with my family once more



frozen smiles painted on people's faces every day

but when they are alone the smile never ever stays

strip away their popularity, strip away their mask

and there is only a piece of flesh crying for the past

cause sometimes a person's heart's worst enemy

is when they have to face life's dose of reality

looking at themselves in the mirro do they know

how fake they are, do they know how much it shows

chorus

I totally relate to this one. I have written several poems about this type of feeling. I like the way you captured your similar feelings here.
