Personal Hell


A personal hell

I’m trapped here

Trapped in my own thoughts where I can’t escape

 

It’s the simple things

Not so simple in my head

Especially when you keep it all bottled up

 

A blessing and a curse

To be so in touch with yourself

Not so much when you try to push it all to the side

 

Others may not notice

I put on a show

Not showing how i really truly feel

 

I love making others laugh

Seeing happiness in them is so great

I laugh with them in hopes for them to be
