Hiding

She hides her feeling with a smile.

She hides her thoughts with sleep.

She hides her mechanism with her sleeve.

"I'm fine"

Is the phrase she lives by. Because she knows, nobody would understand if she told.

Telling would end in judgemental thoughts, weird looks and awkward feelings.

So what does she do?

She hides.

She hides from the world, 

she hides from both the innocent and the guilty, 

the ugly and the pretty. 

She hides from reality. She reminds herself daily to keep herself contained, she reminds herself Daily that nobody cares.

She reminds herself daily that maybe one day she'll be lucky enough and  it'll all end.
