Invisible Pain

An
                                                    Endless
                                                   Feeling of 
                                               Deep emptiness 
                            Hides behind an expected forced wide smile

                              Covered emotional pain soothed with pills
                                               Numbing senses
                                                 Questioning
                                                    The life
                                                     Quest

                                                     Think
                                                     Better 
                                               Days will come 
                                              Waiting to reach 
                                When the decision of change is taken
