Silent Sufferage
Alone in this world
 Or so it may seem
 I barely hang on
 By living in my dreams
 
 A tourtured soul
 Trapped in this place
 A fake expression
 Always worn on my face
 
 I paste on a smile
 As I go out for the day
 And pretend that everything
 Is going my way
 
 They think I'm happy,
 That I've got it all
 But no one knows how hard it is
 To not let the tears fall
 
 I try so hard not to 
 Give in to depression
 But it always ends up
 In unwilling submission
 
 As I watch the birds fly 
 So happy and free
 I wish I could know 
 What it's like to be
 
 Without a care or worry
 Just happy(most of the time)
 Instead of sitting in my room
 Writing meloncholy rymes
 
 I hope and I pray
 That my sun will come out
 And drive far away
 My clouds of worry and doubt
 
 But for now as my world
 Remains grey and discomforting
 My heart remains bleeding
 And silently suffering.
