Whispers

lie

i cried in silence
but no one mustn't see
so i faded my tears into dimples
and acted as happy as can be.

of course, i'm a professional
deceiving everyone, including myself
they can't believe otherwise
for they're too busy on themselves.

so here's something you should learn,
something that will save you some pain;
never reveal how broken you are
because there's nothing else you could gain.
