Pretending.

If I hide beneath my quilt,
Maybe it will go.
If I bury under sheets,
Nobody here will know.

If I smile and wave my hand,
It'll be just like I'm fine,
If I laugh along with you,
It'll be as if I shine.

But if I try for way too long,
To please you before myself,
I will shatter, like a glass,
Put on the highest shelf.

I'll wither like a dying flower,
Snow rest in a snow dome,
Because when I pretend to you,
I just don't know what's 'home'.

Fighting To Keep My Sparkle

Grey skies invade my horizon they're shutting out my sun. I'm feeling deflated, don't like it, and from it I want to run. Darkness falls stifling my optimism, preventing my smiles.

I haven't had a real convo in days and so much shit has been going on. I'm not really the type to share my feelings. I guess you could call me a loner.

Say It Like You Mean It

You ask if iโ€™m okay. I lie. And say iโ€™m fine. Plastering a fake smile on my face. I bite my tongue. Before I can change my mind. You ask if iโ€™m okay. I lie. And say iโ€™m fine.
