Disguised

Cold and broken inside my pain doesn’t show through the disguise
Lonely and hurt but I don’t let unfold into madness

I smile my fake smile and keep walking slowly head up shoulders upright
But when I’m alone I let the tears and pain boil over
My shoulders shaking and my head bowed with the tears falling off onto the floor

I let them fall until they stop then I stare out wondering what everyone would think if I died
I wipe the last of my tears and fall asleep and wake up the next day only to have to do the same thing
