Rejection

Serene, calm happiness,
A façade, all you see,
Be happy on your blissful way,
Don’t worry about me.

Inside my mind is raging,
Turmoil breaking through,
Hateful sobs clutch my throat,
My heart, shattered by you.

Rejection, what a painful word,
Nine letters of one’s demise,
Painfully crushing under converted sorrow,
A body’s will to rise.

Don’t come close, I will cry.
Don’t touch me, I will break.
Just admire this artificial smile,
Let me hide behind this mask.
