The Pain I Hide
I live only a lie
Faking every smile and laugh
Since the truth ceases once morning is nigh
To others I am only a hitch
Fighting alone, while hurting others
Because, like many say, I am a heartless b****
Both my mother and father hate me
So many people stand by their side
This would've never happened if they could see
Inside I feel pain
Trying to cover it up with cruel words
My life a mess, yet I never complain
Others tell me just the same
A w****, and so much more
Desperate to forget and stop their hurt filled game
I won't ever tell anyone a thing
Afraid of the nasty consequences it might cause
The thought of it, the sadness and tears it brings
All stained and imprinted in my once peaceful head
Solving the problem myself never works
But who can I turn to?
I will endure every nightmare I have in bed
Never giving up, ready for a fight
I finally told, asked for help, feeling weak
I guess for once I chose right
Finally being able to live a normal life
No longer screaming every night
