&quot;The heart may be weak, and sometimes it may even give in. But I&#039;ve learned that deep down, there&#039;s a light that never goes out!&quot;<br /> &quot;There is no darkness strong enough in this world that can diminish the light in our hearts.&quot;<br /> -Kingdom Hearts


Living a lie,
It’ll make me cry.
Very expertly I hide
Inevitable feelings inside.
No one sees me
Getting lost in this dark sea.


A lie is what I’ll live,


Let me show you what life doesn’t give.
I’ll perfectly defy
Every rule of life as I’m living a lie.


The author's comments:

This poem talks about my thoughts on hiding your emotions/feelings. In my opinion, hiding your feelings is like living a lie, but people hide their feelings every day, which is sad. You should be able to speak the truth, but the rules of life- more society's wishes than life's wishes, really- make it almost impossible for you to do so when everyone else judges you for it.
