Hidden Pain

As I sit here alone
My tears flow free
a Hot wave of tears
it splashes on my cheek
My heart is heavy
Chained up tight
with pain and despair
too hurt to fight.
To smile and be happy
is just a longtime dream
to laugh from my soul
instead I listen to it scream.
As I sit here alone
I cry tears so fast
For no one to see
I dry them away fast.
