Truth be known,

I miss you,

But you don't know,

Because I'm not with you

If I cry out into the void,

Will you be there to hear?

If I sit in silence, waiting,

Will my echo stretch out for years?

I tell you I don't care,

While deep down I'm screaming,

I tell you that I'm okay,

But tears leave my eyes gleaming

I'm not depressed, I'm happy,

I might look like I'm flying,

But at 3am, early in the morning,

I tend to actually be crying

You believe most of what I say,

So, really, why not this?

Is it because of my tears?

I promise I'm in bliss

But truth be known,

You won't see me cry,

And the reason why I'm happy,

Is because you believed my lie
