Silent screams for help behind a smile
Never a tear when she cried
No one’s happiness she destroyed
She was happy, they said
Behind closed doors
A different story
Never shared her empty feelings
No attempts for help
She smiled
Behind the perfect smile
Only sadness
No longer here
Friends affected
Family torn
Silence and an unwinding smile
Screams for help
Never forgotten
