i have been thinking lately
do others feel the same as me
the tight tug at your chest
when your eyes sob recklessly

today i feel better
because i let it out
today i feel lighter
because they didn't doubt

they didn't doubt my puffy eyes
nor did they doubt my bloated cheeks
they only fixed the mess i had made because they knew i had a reputation to keep

no one asked me why i cried
they all expect me to be the jolly old guy
no interrogations, my mind was satisfied
but my heart wanted someone to care, deep inside
