Liars.

I would never confess that I cry

I would never confess that I want love

I would never confess that I'm... Nothing

 

I'm too scared of tears

I'm too scared of people

I'm too scared of being forgotten

 

Feeling hot streams of salty water flow down my cheeks

Feeling someone disappearing right infront of me

Feeling empy, alone, scared

 

I'm too scared of tears so I keep them in

No matter what I would never let anyone see me cry

I would never show myself being weak

 

I'm too scared of letting someone into my life

They would leave and I would be left with nothing

I would never let myself give away a part of me

 

I'm too scared of letting people see the real me

So I fake... I fake happiness, smiles, laughter

I would never let myself be me

 

Aren't we all just liars?
