I bleed inside, behind a smile it hides.

When any ask, I say I’m fine.

Misery is my companion, I revel in her company.

But anymore she’s all there is for me.

I smile, I laugh, I keep everyone guessing.

They look at me, and think I’m counting blessings.

Yet the pain in my eyes, many would deny.

And if asked, I’ll say, I’m perfectly okay.
