White Lies
i keep telling myself I'm fine,
yet my heart is worn,
feeling so tired at such a young age,
like a book people have torn my pages,
broke my spine,
my sky was blue,
now everything's gray
love is fading away,
I write these words
hoping to ease my pain,
nothing works anymore,
I want to smile,
feel something real,
even if only for awhile

It is sad that you feel such emotions at such a young age. This is how it often feels as one approaches the end of life,when everything was has wished for has somehow become tainted, and all hope of a bright future is lost.

I think the root of all that is that some times I believe I feel emotions a little more than most. I don't let it show though, so I pour it out in my writing
