IF you look at me,
You would be fooled.
I look like I’m happy.
I have a smile on my face.
My clothes are bright
And cheery.
I may laugh, and giggle.
Make smart comments
And tease.
I even fool myself sometimes.
I can look in the mirror,
And see all the things you see.
Then I see the truth.
The dark circles under
My eyes become apparent.
Caused by loss of sleep.
A frown is now there
In replace of the smile.
My headache comes back
From the night before,
That was filled with sobbing.
There is a tear slipping
Down my cheek.
Wait a minute,
I hear footsteps coming
Towards my room.
I wipe the tear away,
Straighten my messy clothes,
And put a smile on my face.
Now I’m ready for whomever
Comes to my door.
They will never know
The true me.
