I Lie

Everytime they ask
Are you alright?
I lie.
Everytime they ask
about my day
I lie.
I'll give them lies
They'll never know
What kind of pain I'm in
I'll never show my face for sure
Too afraid
So
I lie.
I say I'm fine
"My day was great"
They don't know about the pain
I'll never let them know
So forever I will lie

I wrote this because it is true for many people. There is no way everyone is really that happy with their lives. You always have a few bad days. Some don't tell anyone and that is why I wrote this poem.
