I used to be happy,
But now I hide my feelings.
I always bottle it up,
But I never thought I'd feeling this way.
I once believed if I smiled, I'd be happy,
But now I know it can never be true.
If I could be happy again,
I wouldn't feel alone.
I never show my tears, But I might burst at any moment.
I can't control my anguish,
But I can control who knows about it.
I won't share the darkness, consuming me
(It infects me little by little)
But I might one day shrivel up.
I used to be happy,
But now I'm numb.
And that's the worst feeling of all.
