Uncertainty

 

Nobody knows the pain in your heart

deep inside, the tearing apart.

Nobody sees how you silently cry, 

behind a fake smile, the truth in your eyes.

Nobody knows, how you burn inside,

how sorrow settles where hope once tried.

Nobody feels, how the sharp words cut,

how wounds stay open, never shut.

Nobody knows, you are so lonely,

This void feeling is killing you slowly.

Nobody knows, you are cold and broken,

with hidden feelings buried, never spoken.

Nobody knows your inner feelings,

deep inside this soul, silence sings.

Nobody knows, your inner silence,

There is nothing left to say where hatred is immense.

 

Nobody knows, you are dying inside,

you’re fading away, smiling through every shattered day.

Drowning in secrets you couldn’t keep,

washed away by streams of loneliness spreading wide.

 

 

 

 

This is actually an edited version of what I was originally going to post, and I find I like this one much better. I truly want to keep improving, especially because writing is my passion.

Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read. You make this all worthwhile. Without someone to receive them, poems and stories wouldn’t be nearly as meaningful, or as magical, to write.
