in pain

I’m in pain and no one knows
I say but it won’t come out right
I’m angered that others let it show
While mine is kept in tight.

I’m in pain and I don’t know why
These feelings won’t let me be
Can’t allow myself to even cry
Should the tears dissolve the walls that protect me.

I’m in pain don’t know what to do
I just sit here being mean to me
For all I am and all I’ve been
In a way I’d never be to you.
