Letting You In
I wish I could show you what really goes on inside.
I wish I could admit all the feelings that I deny.
Everyday my heart aches, sinking like a black hole in my chest.
Most nights I never have peace and rest.
I look around at the stars so bright,
But all I see is the dark night.
As morning approaches, I witness the sun.
But it's only a reminder of the things I should have done.
Step by step, I make it through the day,
Though I wish at times to fade.
I wear a smile, laugh and joke.
Only to hide the tears which cause me to choke.
This is me, letting you in.
Though you could never see all the ways I did sin.
