Trying To Hide My Tears Poem by Annamaria Fernandez

(chorus)
A shut door
A faked smile once in a while so people don't suspect
Hearing the voices through the door
Hiding the circles under my eyes
Drying the tears on my face
Trying to hide the tears
Drowning out the poison
Can't make it end
Just trying to drown out the poison

All this time
I've wanted some one to save me
Screamed, but silently
The poison keeps seeping into me
A knife stabbed in my heart
Why can't I be my own salvation
My own rescue
I gotta tell someone
But it hurts just to think about it
So how can I tell someone about it
No escape
Why can't someone hear my cries
Come and be my rescuer
Someone please help me
It's tearing me to pieces
Ripping my own heart out

God, I can't even rescue my own heart
Can't stand to pretend any longer
Behind another closed door

(chorus)
A shut door
A faked smile once in a while so people don't suspect
Hearing the voices through the door
Hiding the circles under my eyes
Trying to hide the tears
Drowning out the poison
Can't make it end
Just trying to drown out the poison

Gotta get some help
But who do I ask
I have to trust
I have to try
I have to cry
I
have
to
survive
