The day starts the same as any other,
I wake up and put on my fake smile,
Get ready for the world outside.
Even though every second of living in it,
Causes me so much pain,
But what else could I possibly do?
My best friends don't have a clue,
None of them can imagine how I feel,
This emptiness inside.
How much longer can I pretend,
Before someone starts seeing the cracks,
And ask whats really going on on.
Sometimes I manage to fool myself,
Start to think that things are changing,
Maybe it's my turn at happiness.
That all goes away when I'm alone,
Silence whispering in my ear,
Taunting me with dreams of a better day.
Where do things go from here?
My future looks murky and unclear,
Shrouded in darkness,
There's no happy ending in sight.
So how do I save myself,
When I am my own worst enemy.
