Faking

I'll hide my tears behind a smile.
I'll act like everything is alright.
Then I'll rush home, slam it shut, and lock it tight.
I'll search till I find it.
My one true best friend.
I grip it tight, shut my eyes, and move it across my skin.
As I feel the pain, I feel all my troubles wash away.
I open my eyes and see the blood.
Soon it will turn into a scar and just like the other scars it will remind
me remind me of all the pain I had felt.
I look in the mirror and saw a person that I didn't recognize staring back
at me.
The girl that was once there will never return and i wonder why can't
someone realize that behind my smile I was screaming to be free again?
That my heart was bleeding?
Why can't someone tell that I'm faking?
