What Do I Hide Behind My Face?

.: This poem also is not my best but I would really appreciate any comments and rates! Thanks! :.

What do I hide behind my face?
Nobody knows or can really tell
Just trying to be happy
Pretending that everything is well

Saying I'm happy
That nothing is wrong
That I will be okay
Even though this pain has lasted so long

Looking at the scars
Remembering all this pain is real
Knowing they can’t go away
Realizing they might never heal

Everyone with their own problems
And me with all of mine
I try to be happy for everyone else
And So I just keep pretending I'm fine

I hate hiding my true feelings
But there is nothing I can really do
Just wishing things could be how there were
The past I really loved and knew

But the past is the past
And there’s nothing that can be done
I can never go back
Because it is forever and truly gone

I’m am very good at hiding
At not leaving a trace
And that’s why nobody really knows
What I hide behind my face?

    Portrays your feelings very well. I relate to your work. Thank you for sharing. And come out of hiding! be honest, i know it can be hard...but you can't keep it all inside forever. it's not healthy.

    I think a lot of people can relate to this poem. It's hard but you have to move on from the past and always look at it as a learning experience. I have tried to hide my feelings too but I have a couple friends that see right through me. It's a good release to write your true feelings in poetry. I know how you feel! Good work! Take Care!
