I am a very good liar
No one can tell what is not true
I keep my own thoughts to myself
Especially those about you

I am good at hiding
Those things I don’t want to be seen
No way to know what I am thinking
Whether that be nice or mean

My thoughts are always on one thing
One thing you will never know
Because I am keeping myself hidden from you
So it is best for you to just go

I am able to a lot of the times read the minds of my friends. Since I know how to do this I make sure that no one can do the same to me. I keep my own real thoughts to myself as much as I can

It helps when someone is feeling sad, and they want to talk about it but they don't know what to say.

Thank you so much! People tend to show what they are thinking in their eyes. So if you know someone pretty well then you can figure out how they feel by just looking at them.

How do you read people's minds? I like the ending of this.
