Sacred

I hide behind my smile
It's been quite a while
I cannot show my frown
I'm not ready to drown.

I hide behind my pain
I choose not to complain
I don't want to explain
It will make me insane.

I hide away my tears
Along with my fears
The worst will arise
Even with a disguise.

I hide away my heart
Too scared to fall apart.
Not ready to show my face
But ready to leave this place.
