Scream

I want to scream
I want to tear away everything that keeps me locked away
The days are so long
and the nights so empty
No one really knows me
No one would love me if they did
Hiding behind the smile
trying to keep my thoughts from being seen
Tormented by a pain so deep I can't tell where it ends
Keep everything locked away
Dont let them see
Smile

Interesting thoughts that you have penned...I think that we all have felt that way from time to time maybe a somewhat different scenerio but wanting to scream...Keep the creative pen flowing..Sara
