Shh, this is me and it shall be a secret

I put on this smile

To hide my tears

And yet, you don't see them

I laugh all day long

To hide my screams

And yet, you don't hear them

I crawl into the smallest cracks

To hide my life

And yet, you don't find me

I run as fast as I can

To escape my weaknesses

And yet, you don't catch me

No matter what I do

No matter what I say

As if you only knew.
