The dark weighs in on me
as I sit in my room
the door closed
crying
my heart bleeding
and yet I must not cry loudly,
but keep my sadness hidden
from the world
No one can know
how much pain lives inside me
because there is no clear reason for it
except for life itself
and too many people do not
understand this reason
Tears scar my face
and I wonder
If you knew why I have locked
myself in my room,
why I do not smile,
and why I cannot laugh,
would you understand?
