Pain

pain is hidden not something i share with the world
it made me who i am today


self concious
hurt
scared
tears

i cant be me because of the pain 
i want to be free but everything
that happens adds another hole 
to my already damaged heart

my pain is like acid it burns

its toxic bottled up inside
stored to keep everyone from seeing its true power

im full of toxic waste
it runs through 

veins 
mind 
heart
leavin a mark wherever it goes

always stored my pain never shown
kept to myself 
none knows the real me 
the me thar hurts inside

they all think im happy
theyll never know the truth

im hurt ill say it but none can feel it 
my pain never shown it belongs to me
it created me pain is who i am

PAIN IS WHO I AM
