You're worth more than this.
you say, are you okay?
i don't utter a single word, just smile and nod.
believing my lies, you walk away.
inside i'm screaming, i'm really not, don't leave, please stay.
my mouth might as well be sewn shut,
i'll keep holding back the truth.
until someone cares enough to see the tears behind the smile,
to hear a silent scream, make me rip open the seams.
and let it all out.
