Secrets

Every sound stands out

Can hear every breath of air

The emotions scream, they shout

Cannot hide them here, they’re bare

But alone again, they consume her

With every second, they weigh her down

To tell someone would be the cure

But whenever there are people around

She wears the mask of a smile

Seems as happy as can be

Yet, she’s crying all the while

Afraid to show what it is they don’t see
