Secrets Under My Sleeves

Nobody sees

Nobody knows,

they are a secret

that can never be exposed.


Another cut,

"What's that?"

It was just the cat.


I lie,

to save myself.

But not from the pain

within.


I'm damaged,

I'm broken,

never to be fixed

again.


"Are you ok?"

I'm Fine.

but what they don't is that that

is just a lie.


"Why so many bracelets?"

Just fashion, why.

I'm dying inside

and you don't even see.


I hide behind this fake smile,

that they all believe.

It's just an excuse

so I don't have to leave.


One... Two.. Three... Four

how many more

till I'm dead

on the floor.
