Cracked Window

I think I'm just too open
My heart there for the breaking
I trust far too many
And let them know all that belongs
To my heart and mind.

I think those whispers hurt me
Much more than I ever wanted
Now my heart is swollen
And I put on a fake smile
While I pretend that it never happened.

I think I will change my ways
Try not to be so transparent
But it's just not in my nature
To be so elusive
I better improve my acting.

I think I'll dry my tears
Build a stone wall of protection
Inside I will be vulnerable
But I know one thing for sure
No one will ever see my tears, again.
