Pretended Feelings

by Danielle Leclerc   Aug 10, 2005


I've tried holding back the tears.
I've tried holding back the pain.
I've tried holding back the anger.
I've tried hold back the hateful words.
But no matter how hard I may try, they all seem to find a way out.
And I'm breaking inside.
I wish I could tell you how I really feel.
But I'm so scared, so scared to hurt your feelings.
Why is it that I would rather be in pain then to have you fell guilty for my agony?
Because that is how much I care for you.
I would do anything for you to be happy.
Even if it meant for me to be sad.
I try to act like I'm fine.
I try to act like I don't care.
But really I'm breaking down inside.
What am I suppose to do with myself when I see you with my friend.
Am I suppose to act like every things fine?
Am I suppose to act like I don't care?
Am I suppose to act like I'm cool with all of it?
I'm afraid if I keep on pretending I might explode inside.
But its ok because I would rather see you happy then to have you feel guilty for my sadness.
So that what i have to do.
To keep on pretending.
Yes, that is what I have to do, to keep on pretending, so you are happy.
