In hiding

I hide behind my smile


so fresh and clean


I hide behind my eyes


so blue and supreme


the looks they give me


I don't let them know it means a thing


though the feeling it eats me up everyday


lonley and bitter


I sit in my room to pray


I am not good enough


I am just me


nothing special, don't you see


as my thoughts take over


I lost another part of me today


no one will ever know


no one can ever see


what's hiding inside me


the real me
