Hiding Behind the make-up
The truth kept way down deep
Never speaking, never sharing
A ship in a bottle that can never break
The fear that lurks beneath the surface
The secrets that are kept in the dark
Everything falls apart at the seams
No solid rock to fall back on
The weight of the world to carry
The overwhelming responsibilities
To young to feel like this?
Probably
------------------------------------------
The tears
The fears
So insecure
Scared of the truth
Of admitting the reality
Pretending
Acting strong
Being brave
The voices of those in charge
------------------------------------------
Shouting
Screaming
Crashing
Everyday sounds
Doctors
Social Workers
Bossy people
Everyday encounters
