Madness

An insecure smile 
Hiding madness and gore

An insecure sadness
Hiding love and war

She was many things
But good enough
Wasn't one of them.

I am good at masking what I feel. And self defeating thoughts will come by now and then. But I try to get out of my own head. I really enjoyed reading this! Thank you for posting.
