Words unsaid

Smile

You ask what's wrong
I tell you I'm fine
I get up everyday and put on a smile

Hiding those scars they left in my heart
Concealing those tears i shed in the dark
Burying everything including the pain in my heart
Hiding it all where the sun doesn't spark

"I'm okay" is what i say,
Hoping to live another day
People come and people go
But the memories haunt me even more

Why don't they notice?
Of course they won't.
How can they look past a smile so bright
And see that the eyes don't have any light

After all, we live in a world where feelings are shamed
But everyone feels some pain and ravels it in
Too scared to be judged...
At least I'm not the only one.
