Hiding The Pain Poem by Cati Walthall

Hiding The Pain



Smile so nobody knows it hurts
laugh when all you want is to cry
look like you are alive
when you are nothing but dead
Sing when you want to yell
say you are okay when it's totally not
People just want you to cover up the pain
so no one will get hurt
Lie and say pain isn't real
that's okay, we all live in a fantasy plan anyway
Is this really how you will live your life?
Living in the house of lies?
Stop keeping it all to yourself
You know you can't do this on your own
let people judge you
because depression doesn't make up who you are.
