Why by Anne Faulkner

Why are you looking at me,

Let me hide behind all the people

So you can't see.

Why are you looking at me,

Too many eyes, hands and heads

Let me out of here, let me be free.

Why are you looking at me,

If I keep my head bowed and hat pulled over I am a mystery.

Why are you looking at me,

More make up , another layer is needed

Today, which face will it be.

Why are you looking at me,

I focus on my mobile and my thumbs move over the screen.

Why are you looking at me ,

The face in the mirror

Just keeps looking back...
