9.18.10

With a half-hearted smile, she plays it off as if everything is okay.
She laughs like everythings okay,
she jokes like everythings okay,
she even hides that tear in her voice, and plays it off as if it were just a cough.
the thing you'll never know, is her heart is completly broken.
he'll never know the damage he has done to her crippled, taped up, torn apart one to many 
times, and utterly broken heart.
