Can You Feel



I've wondered
How many people
Noticed the sadness
Behind my smile
If they noticed; they didn't say.

If only they knew
The loneliness I feel inside,
Misunderstood or being used,
Utter despair which engulfs me,
Smothering; suffocating me,
Tearing, ripping apart my soul,
Agony I feel, and hide.

Can you feel my pain
When you look into my eyes?
Can you feel the darkness
That consumes my thoughts?

Can you feel the sadness
That craves to be comforted?
Only if you were able
To feel my torment for a little while...
