Warmest poem you'll see today: Blood shot heart

There's a pain I can't explain,
It lives inside, yet hides in plain.
Behind my eyes, it quietly grows,
A storm within that no one knows.

Some days it feels like I'm just fine,
But deep inside, I toe the line.
Between the smiles I give away,
And all the things I never say.

The hurt is there, it cuts so deep,
It steals my breath, it haunts my sleep.
But I just nod and say I'm good,
Pretend to be the way I should.

It's like a weight I can't let go,
A scar that's there but doesn't show.
I carry it, but never share,
This silent hurt I always wear.

Yet still, I move through every day,
Hoping the pain will fade away.
But until then, I keep it close,
This hidden ache no one knows.
