Hidden behind the pain
Are memories etched in sand.
They're washed away by the waves,
I'm left to wonder where we stand.

Hidden behind the smile
Are demons lurking in the dark.
They whisper secrets I shouldn't know,
Framing them like pieces of art.

Hidden behind the facade of love
Is a bruised but beating heart.
I wonder how long it will remain this way,
Before succumbing to its scars...
