Hidden

AN:  I put this in poetry because there isn't a Fastlane section on ff yet.  This is a piece of pure Van angst written somewhere between "Wet" and "Get Your Mack On"

***

I know I look so innocent

But I'm dark on the inside

Where it counts the most

Don't touch me

Don't trust me

I've spent so long hiding

Behind these brittle lies

Threatening to cave in

If I flinch

If I fail

I've lost myself

Playing so many parts

The real me is buried

You can't find me

You can't save me
