Don't get upset because you couldn't tell,
You can't read my mind or witness this hell,
Look into my eyes, watch this life drain out of me,
That's the only thing I'm surprised you didn't see,
I guess I'm a magician now,
Abracadabra, I mask pain with a smile,
My happiness is disappearing going head to toe,
You sit there in awe and wonder, where did it all go,
Don't worry hun, it's the beginning of the show,
As I finish my trick with the final act,
Where I take my life, you just sit there and clap.

PoetryI'm a poet, and I write a lot of inspiring poetry as I'm told. So, I decided to make a story and put my poetry in it. All of these poems are mine, and none are stolen.
