In The Dark

✨ON THE INSIDE✨

I smiled everyday
I put up a facade of lies
Hiding in fear of judgement
Keeping my pain close

Each day dragged along
But seemed to pass by so fast
Everything seemed to merge
But stay seperate at the same time

My days grew shorter
But my night's grew longer
But it all seemed mixed
Because I didn't care

My head ached
And so did my heart
Even though no one ever broke either
But they were rather born broken

My eyes that once held joy
Now they cage, anger and regret
Like a fire
Ready to flame through a window

My pillows drowned in tears
While my eyes were left barren
Two very different things
But with the same cause

Moving became useless
I didn't see the point
Why move when I can stay
On the inside
