Choking Poem by Chel sea

I put a smile on the outside
'Cause I'm hurting on the inside
I say I'm fine but that's not the truth
I keep swallowing my pain
I keep running and hiding away
I dont want to be seen like this
'Cause I can't show my tears that are running down my face like rain

I'm running, but dont know where
I'm lying, 'cause that's just me
I'm choking, I cant' breathe air
I'm hiding, so you can't see
I'm dying, 'cause I dont care

I put on a facade on the outside
So they don't see what I feel inside
I say I'm ok, but that couldn't be more wrong
I keep getting weak
I keep it all inside myself
Cant you see what's going on Cant you see my pain
But you dont know because I dont speak
'Cause I dont want you to see the tears running down like rain

I'm running from who I am
I'm running out of words to say
I'm hiding from who i am
I'm hiding oh so far away
