Will Those Scars Persist Overmorrow?
June 13, 2024
I’m fine,
I say that all the time.
I laugh. I smile.
The way my emotions lie should be chastised.
Because here I am,
Smirking in the faces of those near.
But I scream in the empty room when it’s just me.
They’ll never know the wars I’ve fought,
They’ll never know the streams of misery I’ve cried,
They’ll never know about my other side,
But most importantly,
They’ll never know the scars I hide.
And I don’t know how long they’ll persist.
Maybe tomorrow,
but overmorrow?
Who knows.
After all,
Everything is unpredictable.
