What you saw behind my eyes

I once asked
What you saw behind these blue eyes of mine
Why did I ever think
That just for a moment
The words you would utter
Would be the ones I wanted to hear
But instead what you had to say
Traveled down into my soul
Like nothing else has
You said you saw
Sadness...
Despair...
Pain...
I sat there
Looking directly into your eyes
As you stared right back
Easily speaking the truth
Suffering...
Misunderstanding...
Brokenness...
You kept on listing
Words that I never wanted to hear
Things I don't see in myself
Depression...
Weakness...
Hurt...
As I listen to all that you say
I hold back everything
I have ever wanted to unleash
Loneliness...
Confusion...
Cold-heartedness...
Then you stopped
And I am shocked
At everything you said
Oh how I wanted to cry
Oh how I just wanted to let it all out
But...
I could not bring myself
To cry
To let out everything
You found behind my eyes
