My World

Some smile to laugh
Others frown to cry
But I am different the enigma the outsider 
I smile to cover the cries
I laugh to hide the pain
I do not want to cry
But my life is full of pain
Everyday is a battlefield
But I keep my walls up
No one has seen
The other side of me
No one will ever 
Get inside my head
I lost my identity
A long time ago
After losing someone
Who I cared for
They left me alone
Without love nor a home
They set me screaming
Into the storm
And while you see me here today
My mind and dreams are far away
Thinking of the day 
That I wish I could I back to
Maybe one day
If I get that far
I'll show everyone
Who I really am
But until then
Don't count on me
To show you
My World
