Secrets
The pain cuts deep, the sorrows wide
The sadness gets too hard to hide
Paint on a smile and say you're fine,
Don't let anyone know you've crossed the line.
Add a few bracelets, longer sleeves
Deny their help, though your heart begs please.
Your mind is tangled, thoughts distraught.
You hate the feelings the darkness brought.
There's no way out; who would've thought?
The pain and sadness are tattooed
Your brain just aches, your fears include
The thoughts you try to keep behind
Walls of glass that cannot bind
Together they keep falling down
You simply can't stop the horrific frown.
Everyone asks, your mouth's glued shut
You've dug yourself into a rut
Because sometimes life is living Hell
We all have secrets we'll never tell.
