my eyes tell you nothing
you dont see the hurt deep inside
the htoughts pass through my head like daggers
my smile hides everything
you don't know the depth of pain in my heart
it eats me slowly and yet i fight it
my voice does not falter
you don't realize the tears i've cried silently
each drop taking very little of the pain
i want to be save...but i must be strong
i want to be protected...but i have only myself
i want to be supported...but i am afraid
