Each day is such a misery
to hide, so no one sees-
the surrow behind this mask
behind this fake happy.
Forcing the laughter, this smile
pretending it's all okay-
Living a lie I can't reveal
just pains me every day.
Can't show any weakness
any vulnerability-
But impersonate an image
that hurts constantly.
My heart is overwhelmed
with pain that no one knows-
A smile to hide behind the hurt
that I'm forced not to show.
