Internally Dying
Internally dying
I'm quiet yes
but inside I'm a mess
Outside I look blessed
but inside I feel cursed
I look loved
but I feel hated
I appear to be smiling
but I'm dying and hurting
What you see is not real
It's all a lie, it's unreal
I hide all my pain
but nothing I gain
At night it all comes back
Back to attack
I cry silently
I cry quietly
If only my pillow could talk
It would tell
But I still wake up with a smile, walk
as if all is well
Yet I am Internally dying.
