Tears Unseen

Tears unseen behind sunglasses.
I say,"I'm fine" to the masses
Of people that pretend to care.
I need them, but they're never there.

The sun is growing bright outside.
Shadows whirl inside my mind.
They all say that it's my fault.
My happiness comes to a hault.

Can you tell me why I'm this way?
Is there a word that you can say?
Will these feelings never go away?
Questions that are here to stay.

This storm raging inside of me,
It just won't go to let me be.
I wish I knew a how or why
To explain these thoughts I hide.

My feelings I do not express.
My nature wants me to impress
Those who do not understand.
And so the burden I withstand.

I feel the pain behind my eyes.
I lift my eyes up to the skies.
Everything I am caught between.
I'm haunted by my tears unseen.
