She Hides Her Truth

She hides her truth 
she uplifts them all
showing them a loving nature
compassion parades into their lives
thanks to what she has suffered
she hides her truth
burdening no one
until she cannot take it any longer
suicide seems to be the only way
shocking them all

So sad. Some people give and give and give until there isn't anything else to give, and so they give themselves peace.

I used to do this; I have gotten better. I have never built any walls, but now I have a small brick path they have to walk over to get to me.
