Glass
The glass is fogged
 You can't see through
 Only a silouette
 of what may be
 Steam clouds your vision
 obstructing your view
 
 Moriah steps up
 Rubs away the condensation
 Leaving smears of water
 Streaked over my form
 she asks if I'm okay
 she saw enough of me 
 To understand something's wrong
 
 I tell her
 through the mist and steam
 Trying to corner
 what must not be seen
 that I think I'm all right
 
 You refuse to look
 At my nakedness
 only a hindered glance
 At my fogged-over form
 Not wanting to see
 Not wanting to bare
 what lays beyond
 
 Cracks spray
 Unchecked across the glass
 I'm afraid to get too close
 I might be seen
 It might all but shatter
 
 It is me
 that lays beyond
 I'm starting to be
 A little easy to read
 
 Depression
 Is by far
 Easy to see on my face
 Like the water on the surface
 of the glass-paned door
 It's cracking
 Getting ready to break
 As is my cover
 where happiness is fake
