What the souls want to hear

What's inside

Do be happy.

Dont delay expressing your feelings.

Keeping things within you will make it worse. Remember someone else may be going through the same things as you do and speaking about them may make fetch you a good friend.

Unwanted advice: Laugh

From inside I'm broken,

I want a good life as a token.

My heart is shattered,

But by some people's remarks I am flattered.

I have put on fake smiles,

To make you happy at times.

I don't ever think anyone will know,

How I feel and how my feelings grow.

Making people laugh is my expertise,

It's because I know how it feels to be nobodies.

You might say I'm a happy person,

But for me to even smile, there's actually no reason,

Everyday I put on a mask,

To even talk without crying is a big task.

Maybe I have some friends,

But none of them meet the ends.

No one knows what I've been through,

Not my best friend, not even you.

Pieces of abuse stab my chest,

The only thing I do is hope for the best,

Daily my heart fights with my brain,

And then my body, it responds with pain.

Everyone is so close, yet far away,

My sister, my friend, everyone does betray.

I can go on,

But by then, you'll be gone.

So I'll just end by saying,

I'll just bear it, and keep delaying.

Story time

So I knew this person okay. She was one of my bestest friends. Not that she isn't anymore. Just that we don't talk as much.
She always kept things inside her. She was truly what we can call BROKEN. Shattered.
But no one knew. Everyone thought she was happy. Only me and a couple of her other friends knew what she was going through.
Over time, she learnt to mend herself. But she never told the people who made her feel so bad about what was happening to her because of their actions and/or words.
Today when I speak to her; she is completely changed. She's much less sensitive towards others. But she still calls the people who caused her to change who she as a person (according to me) "friends"
She never gave her true feelings to them. They took advantage of that. She forgave them way too many times. And now she keeps delaying.
