Sometimes I feel things that I didn't even know I could feel.
And definitely know I shouldn't.
I keep them hidden from others.
Only because I don't want to bother them with my problems.
But if I hide them and they find out?
What am I going to do?
What are they going to do?
I have no idea.
Wish I did though....

If they find out will they be upset?
Hurt?
Sad?
Or angry at me for not telling them?

These feelings stay hidden until I break and end up telling at least one person.
Then they freak out.
And I'm stuck trying to tell them that it's fine.
Even when I'm not sure if it is.

I try my hardest to make sure others feel comfort when they're around me.
Never realizing that most of the time, I am uncomfortable.
I act as happy as possible so they feel good.
I put on a smile, and laugh when they do.
But sometimes I don't know if I can keep faking it.
Some people can tell when I'm faking.
Others think I'm perfectly fine.

How do I keep hiding?
Hiding my feelings from the people I love.
They're bound to find out eventually.
Should I tell them I feel this way?
No.
I can't.
I will hurt them.
But they should know.

Do I keep hiding...?
