Unseen hurt

I am hurt And you can not see The hurt that i have Is inside of me You cant see the pain I live with everyday This is the kind of hurt That does not go away It didnt happen overnight It got worse over time Now i live with a pain I can not leave behind i have tried to forget The things that ive been through It would be so much easier If you only knew But everyday i fake a smile Sometimes i even laugh I try to keep the real me Hidden underneath a mask i hope one day the pain will go away I dont want to spend my life Hurtting in this way
