not everyone looks into your inner soul
they do not care to know your pain
they live their lives brave and careless
while you live yours in agony
in fear
in pain
without any hopes of a savior
they move on around you
while you are stuck in the same spot
never moving
never ending
with the same smile on your face
but they do not know it's fake
they don't see what you see
they see happiness, love, joy
you do not
you see all of the darkest shadows to their world
the monsters under their bed and in their closets
the unknown knives in their backs
everything is fine with them
everything is too real with you
so you keep your chin up
and hide the pain with the very same smile
the fake smile
