My Heart
My heart was once
Filled with joy and happiness,
But now it’s broken and hurt
And filled with sadness.
I try to stay calm.
I try to keep cool.
I try to keep a smile on my face at school.
But the truth is I’m just
A fool.
There is no healing.
There is no growth.
Just pain and hurt until
one day it overflows.
I say I’m fine, but I know
It’s a lie
But it’s easier to say that then explaining why.
I can’t believe anything people say
Because I know that people lie in all different ways.
My thoughts control me,
They leave me empty,
They make me think
That nobody wants me;
I don’t want attention
So I don’t let it out.
I keep a smile on my face
So I don't get asked too many questions.
My heart it hurts and I
don't know why
But I can't explain it
because I'm way too shy.
