A writing going out to  those who feel lonely yet they always wear a smile to cover their inner screams

LONE SOUL

Valentine W

Hiding the hurt hiding the pain hiding the tears that fall like rain

my skies are dark and days grey with no love to light my way

so down and blue slowly consumed by loneliness

Wearing a smile to hide my feelings behind a lie

my fragile lies will soon collapse exposing my dark gothic smiles and laughs 

smiles that hides my tears and laughs my screams

practising my smiles in the mirror perfecting my fake laugh making it clearer slowly I die within

when the greatest enemy resides within I wanna be me for peace to reign

but how can be me when even I remain a mystery

I wish they could see how damaged I am inside I wish could let it free and let them know what's laying underneath

and care enough to remove it is that too much to ask?
