Broken

It's amazing how much,
A smile can hide.
Looking so happy,
But broken inside.

The sleeves I wear,
Arouse no suspicion,
"It's cold," I say,
When anyone questions.

Unwanted, unloved,
The feelings are strong
Numbing the joy,
That was once not wrong.

I am what you call lifeless,
But I hadn't always been.
Don't ask me how or why,
Or I will yell and scream.
