Your eyes are all glassy
And there’s sorrow inside.
We asked you if you were okay
But instead you lied.
**
We could tell something was up
But you simply denied.
We asked what was wrong
But instead you lied.
**
You were sick of us asking
So you merely sighed.
We were going to ask you
But instead you lied.
**
Your eyes are all glassy
And there’s sorrow inside.
We asked if you were fine
But instead you cried.

This is a nice little poem. I like the repeating it worked for this poem very well. You also used words and rhyming that flowed very well. All in all I liked this poem. Thanks for entering my contest.

Aww, such a write this is
I like how at first the persona is/are sick of the person they're concern about keeps lying and then the ending is he/she crying- great touch to this piece ^^
Not much to say here even the repetitions didn't bug me
