Hiding Behind Her Smile
You cannot see the torn up pieces,
the remains of a broken sole,
a heart shattered,
the pieces scattered,
You can only see her smile
You cannot hear a lonely cry,
a yell expressing unbearable anger,
a subtle weep,
she cannot sleep,
you can only hear her laugh
You cannot feel her aching heart,
hung out to dry,
sinks down like a rock,
her stomach will drop,
You can only feel her lie
