Sometimes i may cry
The tears I shed are proof of my instability
But nevertheless
I will put them away
For when i need them most
They show the people whom i love very much
The pain I've suffered on my behalf
The mistakes I've always wished I've never made
The regrets that rest in my mind
They play over and over again
They'll never know what happened to me
What I've done to feel so much hatred toward myself
But at least I'm showing them something
With my tears, I show them that I am not always happy
Infact, I think it shows them that I'm not at all happy
Truly happy, that is
But, in reality, who is?
Maybe if we all broke down our walls
Unlocked our doors
And looked deep within ourselves
We'd see how sad we all really are.
