My smile hides my tears.
My laugh hides my screams.
It's been this way for years.
Things aren't as they seem.
I always seem so happy.
With not a care in the world.
But you should know sadly,
Many things go untold.
Nobody really knows me.
They only know my cover.
But I wish I could let it free.
Let them know what's under.
But instead I practice
My smiles in the mirror.
Then the next thing I do is
Make my fake laugh clearer.
What is wrong? You need help?
Is all they will ask.
So I have decided
To live behind a mask.
Nice poem. Fed up with people who give false assurances, it is better to keep silent and live ones life without any complain.Keep inking.
