strawberry by Emily G Myerssmile at me over strawberry shortcake
denying this need you have to save me
pretending you don't know that I'm down
taking each bite with a tiny grin
because you know exactly what I hide
you said to me 'I know you. I know you do.'
but you don't know everything I've hidden
all the things I feel inside me that I'd like to say
but I don't say for the good of everyone
every beautiful feeling I've had
produced by a glance or word
I turn away so you won't see
I hide my face
but I still know
that you know me
and not many people do 04/26/2000 Posted on 10/26/2004 Copyright © 2025 Emily G Myers
