Hiding

you don't know
what is hidden
behind this smile
but

maybe
if you look close enough
you'll find my pain
hidden deep
inside my heart

all of it locked
in a safe
unreachable by
anyone
but

maybe
if you search
deep into my soul
you might find
the key

the key
hidden behind
fake smiles
silent crying
and broken pieces

broken pieces
of my heart
all of this
covering up the pain
of what you did to me

it wouldn't matter
you can't unlock my pain
the lock has rusted shut
it can't be fixed
but that's how you wanted it

Am I right?
