Set paper on fire with this pen.
With all the memories,
I don't want to relive again.
Sometimes, it's my only way out.
I'm screaming inside,
on the outside...
I make no sound.
Weight of words,
the heaviest things I've carried.
There's so many I won't say.
With them, my tormentors,
I'll be buried.
For now, I'll cry when no one's looking
I'll say I'm fine with a smile that's reassuring.
Cover up the real me.
Aside from the woman looking in the mirror,
I won't let them see.
No one can handle the mess that I am.
No one will look past my flaws,
Just to say, they don't give a damn.
I'm alone in this devastation.
Alone, like I sit in my room, silently breaking.
