Let It Out

What's behind the smiles What's behind the sparkle in your eyes Is it tears? Fears? The laughter The craziness and banter The fun weirdness The mere queerness A wall you put up to the worlds eyes Even to those you love there are lies To protect them from a world unseen By those who have ever been Away from the flinching noises Strangers voices People that should have never been there Appearing out of nowhere Deliciously waiting for the drama to overspill So that they can take their kill Their seeming hunger And crazy laughter A ruse put up in our place To infiltrate and gain our space Destroying solace and years of relationships Problems they caused through shouting and dictatorships They strived to tear and destroy To cause pain and leave a remaining convoy Of nightmares, hysterical tears and nerves Never ending nerves Imagine; To be scared of the world biting back To have seen it so much you'd do anything to keep it back To avoid the fight and crumble In a mess that is your fragile confidence bubble But then, back in your huddle You can see a light in your tunnel That's behind an opening door That you never saw before It's ok, the smiles are real Cause what has been slowly crumbling to what is real What matters in your life The people that always help in strife It can come in any form, a surprise one day When you expected it to stay When you finally see it fading And your nerves are no longer degrading You need to remember to get back to yourself; that what matters is you It may sound narcissistic but sometimes you need to rebuild yourself after crumbling, to get back to life and not be numb.
