A first poe-try

Sitting silent, a crafted smile on your face
while you keep to yourself.
No one ever wonders or cares,
so you keep to yourself.
Years flash by, minutes resemble days,
and life devours you away
while you keep to yourself.
When there is nothing left to expect,
that is when you keep to yourself.
Yet, long forgotten remains,
the first time I kept to myself.
