Smiling each and every day
Hiding the pain within
Sorrow clawing at her soul
Surely, this must be a sin?
Fake laughter escaping her lips
Yet crying silently inside
Going about life expressing joy
When all she wants to do is hide.
Every second feeling like a chore
Wanting the turmoil to end
Spending her waking moments
Wishing her broken heart to mend.
Looking so happy and bright
Like she hasn't a care in the world
Everyone else wanting to be her
No idea inside she's a lonely girl.
Torment taking over her soul
Yet it never shows
Filled with woe and confusion
And yet nobody knows
