Silent Pain
I’m always “happy”,
I never cry in front of others.
Well, unless it’s someone I trust.
Besides that,
I’m always lifting people’s moods!
It’s nice to make others happy.
On the inside, however,
I’m screaming.
I’m crying.
Begging for someone to help me,
to get me out of this drowning sadness.
But I don’t let it show.
I never will.
It’ll always remain,
a silent pain.
