Hidden Pain

I try to tell myself that I don't care that their words mean nothing to me
But it's all a lie
I do and it does
It's a lie I tell myself everyday just to stay strong
A lie I tell just to keep myself together
to keep from falling apart
And everyday the pain gets worse
I'm just hurting and hurting with no one to run to
no one to tell
I've fallen in so deep I can't see past this pain
And everyday
Their words carve new wounds
rip open old ones
And I'm just a bleeding mess
Can't see where my pain ends and I begin
Can't see past the letters that make up my own personal hell
