Excruciating Pain

Cutting through the pain I'm feeling
Is something I have come to know
This is my way of dealing
With the feelings I cant show.

My days of standing tall and strong
Have all been left far behind.
I really don't know what went wrong
Its a mystery I want no one to find.

I fake a smile every day,
Hiding my secrets deep within,
I want everyone to think that I'm okay,
My trust in people has grown thin.
