Sadness

I feel sadness deep within me
Even when I'm happy I'm still sad
Does that make sense? Don't ask me to explain it
I know you won't understand me
You try to make me happy
and I promise I try my best to let the feelings go away but I can't
It's so hard and honestly I'm tired of hiding it
Pretending I'm happy just so you don't see my sadness
Sometimes I cry and let it out
but most of the time I hide it so you don't see
How sad I really am but my eyes betray me
If you look closely you'll see the sadness
The emptiness they're crying for help
For a hug or some words or wisdom
For a "you'll be okay" or "you're not alone"
Because it sure feels like it
Will you help me?  Can you save me?
Please I'm asking. Don't leave alone
I can't stand it, I've been alone  but now I'm lonely.
