I wait and wait to only say nothing <br />You look so happy why can't I be? <br />Hiding all the bruises and <br />all the cuts deep down inside. <br /> <br />My heart is screaming <br />yet i can't make a single <br />noise or even a sound. <br />Please don't ask me why. <br /> <br />Because then all you will <br />see is me cry. <br />All i need is pure silence <br />and maybe then <br />I won't need to hide this and smile <br /> <br />because my smile is my strength <br />and strength is nothing <br />then how well you hide your <br />true pain.<br /><br />Jessie Ward<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-smile-only-hides-the-pain/
