For you, Werner.

Caged and harnessed

I have my emotions under control

Caged and harnessed

You don’t notice my flashes of pain

And I ignore them

Your careless words hurt

Even when I know your intentions are good

But you’ll never know my pain

By looking at my face

I can plaster a smile onto my broken heart

And you’ll never see

The façade is perfectly in place

I have everything under control

Will you ever see past my actions

And into my heart?

Not likelyBecause I have total power over my emotions
