Behind My Smile

Behind my smile are things
you don't know,
Stories that I've never told.

Things that hurt me down to
my soul,
things that I wouldn't dare let
be known.

Things that bring pain to
almost every one of my days.

Behind my smile hides
my emotion,
my pains,
things that I can't even explain.
