My Deepest Feeling
I hide behind a smile
Many times I just want to cry
Not be able to tell my friends
And almost being ignored by family
They really don’t care
About my pain
Filled with so much pain
I try to keep a smile
Trying to keep a straight face and not cry
I try not to worry my friends
Nor family
Sometime my expression may show, and some will care
Never knowing how much they care
I am being tortured inside with pain
Sometimes I can’t even smile
I start to cry
Making excuse that I am tired to my friends
And needing my family
But we can’t always count on family
They don’t know how to care
I am always in pain
They don’t care for a smile
Or when I cry
I feel as if I don’t have friends
Not understanding my friends
Having a family
Who doesn’t care
Unknowingly having pain
I can never smile
But cry
Finding other option than crying
Opening up my emotion to friends
And family
I realize they actually care
No result on what causes my pain
Trying to stay positive and smile
