Easygoing and optimistic on the outside, a nervous wreck on the inside. Torn apart by worry. Stressed beyond mental capability, yet still putting on a good show for the spectators that watch the outside. But open my mind and the screams would rain out. The emotions would go wild and the only sense of rational thought would be destroyed in one thunderous boom as the door slams to my “inside”.
