Hiding .

Hiding behind my smile.
Hiding behind the sparkle in my eyes.
Hiding behind who I am inside.
Hiding behind the tears I cry.
Hiding behind one big lie.
Hiding from the voices in my head.
Hiding from the blood I've shed.
Hiding from the pain I've caused.
Hiding from all my flaws.
Hiding all the scars I've made.
Hiding all my razor blades.
Hiding all my feelings still.
Hiding what i wish wasn't real.
Deep down I can see the real me,
that's all covered up by this scarred body.
One day I won't have to hide who I am,
I will come out from my mind, be proud of who I am.
Hiding behind the sparkle in my eyes.
Hiding behind who I am inside.
Hiding behind the tears I cry.
Hiding behind one big lie.
Hiding from the voices in my head.
Hiding from the blood I've shed.
Hiding from the pain I've caused.
Hiding from all my flaws.
Hiding all the scars I've made.
Hiding all my razor blades.
Hiding all my feelings still.
Hiding what i wish wasn't real.
Deep down I can see the real me,
that's all covered up by this scarred body.
One day I won't have to hide who I am,
I will come out from my mind, be proud of who I am.
Life is like a big game of Hide and Seek, but he who hides too well is never found.

where are you hiding?
did the wind sweep you away with the leaves?
did the rain wash you away with the mud?
why are you hiding?
to get away from the pain you feel?
to forget the sweet songs we once sang?
how are you hiding?
is she hiding with you and keeping you company?
is she helping you forget by singing a new song?
when will you return?
when you realize her song is not as sweet as ours?
when you want to remember again?
will you hide forever?
what if she leaves you, will you still hide?
will you ever remember the good?
who is hiding with you?
I'm sure not the leaves.
I'm sure not the mud.
what can I do to take you out of hiding?
can I hold your hand like I once did?
can I whisper sweet nothings into your ear to make you smile?
I know where you're hiding.
you are hiding within yourself.
I know why you are hiding.
you are hiding to ease the pain.
I know how you are hiding.
you are hiding easily because she holds you when it hurts.
I know when you will return.
you won't.
I know if you will hide forever.
you will, as long as she stays.
I know who is hiding with you.
the girl with the blue eyes.
I know what I can do to take you out of hiding.
nothing.
nothing.
nothing except maybe hide too.
then maybe you'll ask yourself all the same questions I asked myself.
but I won't be there to answer them anymore.

Why Do I Hide?

I hide from myself
If I dont think I won't breathe
I won't die
Why are you hiding?
A simple question
Thousands of answer appear
From my "Family"
From myself
From my fear
From my work or school
From my friends
From the world
My answer is;
I'm not hiding
What are you talking about
I can't face the people who I love
I can't even face myself
They ask me again:
Why are you hiding?
Who said I was hiding huh?
Does it look like I'm hiding?
Is it visible
I think to myself
Oh if only
I wasn't hiding
I sneak around in plain sight
I'm the shadow always overlooked
They don't pay attention at all
Well you got your answer
I'm hiding from facing the world like an adult
I'm hiding from myself
I'm hiding from my family
I'm hiding from my thoughts
I'm hiding from the person who asked why I'm hiding
Have you noticed that I'm not talking anymore
I barely watch television with you
I'm looking down at a small electronic device
Hoping to disappear into it
All because you made feel like crap
Like I'm a price of gum under your show
"Why aren't you doing your chore?"
Is almost like
"Why are you hiding from me?"
I'm hiding from everything
And everyone
Can't you tell
I'm living in hell?
Lies all the lies
Sleeping in one cave
Then they slither out
To poison more peoples minds
All at once
Which is why I hide
All the pain
Pain of love
Pain of life
Pain of family and friends
It's the reason I hide
You can notice the shadows dancing around
Just like a flame stuck in a jar
It
Burns
With
Fire
This is why I hide.
If I dont think I won't breathe
I won't die
