Heart Of Glass

February 8, 2013
By Anonymous

My smile is forced
I at night I cry
All they see is is a mask
Yet all I can ask is why

I hide the truth
So they can’t see
They won’t understand
But this is me

I am sad, I am lonely
But yet I am strong
But that’s not me
Where do I belong

Am I unloved
Or unwanted
Do I even care
Or is it I’m taunted

Will I ever be happy
Or stay forever sad
Do I have a choice
Am I going mad

My voice must be heard
By someone out there
Maybe one day soon
Someone will care

No, it’s a long shot
For this I am sure
I wish it wasn’t true
But life can be a blur

I wipe my tears
The day will pass
Damaged but not broken
My heart made of glass...

We all have tough times, right now in my life has been tough and I sometimes feel all alone and like a mistake, but I'm not and neither are you.
