If No One Were Looking


If no one were looking
We would stop pretending
Our actions real, true
Emotions in plain hue
No longer meekly hiding
If no one were looking

If no one were listening
Secrets cease to be silent
Out loud would speak minds
Not a fragment straying behind
Each signal openly sent
If no one were listening

If no one were judging
Choices solely our own
Expectations no longer to meet
No victory or low defeat
Or disapproving undertones
If no one were judging
