I'm fine

some times i wish
that i could
go back in time
to a time that i was happy
and i felt inside
now my hearts' turned to dust
my veins to rust
and my brain to mush
you have me spinning around my room
with shoes i would only wear
when i really
danced
the new ones
the ones that i was saving for a
'special occasion'
that will never come
oh well
i guess that
i will lock
the door
and 'loose'
the key
but instead i will use
the key
to unlock another door
one that only i know
what is inside
oh you've seen the contents but
never knew what you were
looking at
a box a masks
because i have trained
myself to hide
so whenever something is
sad
i look
happy
whenever something is
wrong
i look
happy
whenever something is tearing me apart and the pain is so bad that i can barley breath anymore
i look
happy
and this act
of looking
happy
of looking
fine
like nothing wrong ever happens
is something that i wish that i could
get rid of
but it has become
too much of a habit
for me to just leave it behind
so i guess
i will go on
looking
happy
looking
fine
what's the difference
you dont care now
and you didnt care then
when i actually
looked
sad

    I can really identify with this, I am too good at hiding things as well sometimes. I loved how you got your emotion through but at the same time made it seem understated with the use of very short lines. Good work.

    That was seriously freaking amazing. I loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. That was very deep, and it was excellently written. I loved how you rhymed sometimes and stuff.. yeah... Lol. Anyways, I used to be like that too, when ever I was sad or something I would never show it, just be happy all the time. Anyways, I didn't see grammar errors, except capitalization, but I think you know about that. Lol, anyways. Good job! And keep writing more!

    Keep up the good work!,

    I used to be like this... hiding my emotions from people and I sometimes still do that but I guess it all depends if you have the right friends that are always there for you and can just tell when somethings wrong. *hugs* hope everything goes well for you. Keep writing!!!
