The pain I feel inside me
can not be seen by others
it`s hidden in my soul
and locked away
a secret that I will keep
not able to share now
will turn the key and walk away
and hold my head up high
though the pain is there constantly
I will not show the world
that I am dying from the inside
and pray this decay will stay within
so as not want to cause trouble
or upset anyone
I will fight this urge to cry
to scream out in agony
as it`s my pain
and not yours
so I will keep this pain
keep it inside me
so I can wear a mask
for all the world to see
that I am happy
happy with my pain
that you can`t see.........
there are times to show pain....and others when you don`t...this time....I won`t....!
