My heart is broken<br /> My words are unspoken<br /> My tears are saying all that needs to be said.<br /> Thoughts and feelings through my head,<br /> How dare you do what you&#039;ve done to me?<br /> How could one guy cause all this misery?

The ask me if I'm "okay"
What am I supposed to say?
I could tell them what is
On my mind, every single
depressed thought.
But I won't. Instead,
I fake a smile,
And walk onward,
Thoughts still bottled up
In my head.
