No one cares, no one sees,
A soul adrift in silent pleas.
They turn away, deny my hand,
Like I’m a ghost in no one’s land.

Am I not worthy? Am I not kind?
A gentle heart, a thoughtful mind.
Am I not human, don’t I feel?
Why is my hurt never real?

They hurt, they laugh, they walk away,
While I bear pain they never weigh.
I feel the weight, the aching deep,
In crowded rooms, I only weep.

But still I vow, I will rise strong,
Though I’ve been quiet for too long.
I’ll go silent, I won’t care,
No more words to fill the air.

I won’t talk, I’ll disappear,
Like fading light, I won’t be near.
Invisible, I’ll slip away,
And maybe… be at peace someday.

Without Letting Anyone Know

Battling shadows every night,
Drowning deep, far from light.
Yet dawn arrives, I wear a smile,
Hiding the pain, mile after mile.
No one sees the silent fight—
I keep it hidden out of sight.

Afraid to speak, afraid they’ll see,
Afraid they'll judge what's wrong with me.
So I laugh, and crack a joke or two,
While inside, I’m split in two.
Carrying a weight they’ll never show,
Still smiling...
Without letting anyone know.

-

No one will ever truly know me.
How can they when they never even try?
Because I smile, they assume I am happy.

No one knows me.
I hide behind a mask.
They just never did get it.

No one knows me.
It is a difficult task.
Always there for people, but they are never truly there for me.

No one knows me.
Friendships, I have many.
If I do, why do I still feel alone in this world?

No one knows me.
I guess it is just a curse.
They wouldn't understand.

No one knows me.
They wouldn't care.
They would call it just a phase.

The emotionless mask will be up forevermore,
waiting for someone to take it off of me.
No one will ever truly know me.

-

People are mean, they often deceive,
Friends feel unreal, just tricks to believe.
People will judge, and cause you to grieve,
People will hurt, and make you want to leave.

People have hurt me, left me in pain,
People have left me, like drops in the rain.
Fake people go away, they’re not worth the fight,
Don’t hurt me more, I need some light.

Ending life feels like the only way,
To escape all the hurt that won't go away.
I hope you’ll understand, maybe someday,
The depth of my pain and why I feel this way.

-

One-sided love hurts, and the pain takes its toll,
Ego takes its place, and hearts start to roll.
People stop caring, and love starts to fade,
But let it hurt until you endure, and a new path is made.

Don't say anything, just go silent and strong,
For in the quiet, you'll find a love that's true and long.
Let the hurt subside, and the healing begin,
And in the silence, your heart will love again.

-

In love's embrace, pain finds its place,
A dangerous game, slow poison's trace,
Silently it creeps, a life it steals,
Release its grip, let self-love heal.

-

In the silence of a blank mind,
With teary eyes that search to find,
A reason unknown, lost in the grind,
The environment is low, darkly entwined,
Seeking a solution, a path aligned,
To bounce back strong, hope redefined.

-

Bad day, feeling blue,
Thoughtful mind, with nothing to do.
Getting irritated, time drags on,
No one's here, everyone's gone.
Only one thing left, it’s clear,
To help myself, to persevere.

-

Underneath my outside face
There's a face that none can see.
A little less smiley,
A little less sure,
But a whole lot more like me.

-

People think that I have it all,
But they know nothing, nothing at all.
So now I laugh to hide my tears,
The tears that I gain from my fears.

You may think I'm too young to know such.
If this is so, you know nothing much,
For I have bared so much pain,
Pain I just wish could be washed in the rain.

I hide a lot, too much I mask.
To tell these things is too much to ask.
For I am ripped, broken inside,
At least it's not that hard to hide.

The tears I shed from my eyes
Are the hopes I had, the hopes that died,
The hope that happiness could be made
To forever stop this masquerade.
