It's So Easy

It's so easy to put on a smile.
It's so easy to delay your tears for those extra hours.
But then when you are finally away from the world.
It all comes crashing down.

The tears fall in a steady stream.
Your sobs are quiet so no one can hear you.
You don't want prying.
You don't want to smile.
You don't want to put on your mask.
You don't want to wipe away your tears.
You only want crying.

But maybe, just maybe,
Your tears are put away.
You've found someone.

But that was just an illusion.
Everything only delays.
It all builds up.

You want to scream at the world.
You want to tear at your hair.
You want to break something.

You want to whimper to yourself.
You want to curl up in a ball.
You want to leave the world behind.

You think your life is so difficult.
So horrible.

Then you realize how selfish you are.
How horrible you are.

You are left empty.
