Double Faced

These days I’ve been
Feeling sad
I feel something akin
Inside of me that is bad

I fake a smile
From time to time
They never thought for a while
Will he be able to climb?

My wounds don’t bleed
So they think that I’m happy
With these words that I knead
My end is near so don’t worry

Serge, you made me envision how painful and dangerous wounds that don't bleed are. The sufferers barely recieve sympathy, yet they die fast. Thank you for the thoughtful, poetic piece. Welcome to poetrysoup!

I love your last stanza "My wounds don't bleed so they think that I'm happy." That's my favorite(: I enjoyed the whole poem as well.
