A single face, a single mask

A simple façade hides my pain and suffering
Like a disease that slowly kills me 
I simply don't want to worry others. 
It hurts, someone save me 
  
Smiling and laughing 
Happiness and kindness 
Such innocent smiles cast upon their face 
It hurts, I can't go on 
  
Chain binds and pulls me in the abyss 
I'm losing emotions, it's frustrating 
Looking at them, looking at their leaving figure 
Don't leave me alone. 
  
Such loneliness showered upon me 
I can't see anyone 
I can't hear anymore 
Such emptiness in this world 
  
Was it wrong to fake a smile?
