No One Knows

Withdrawn, empty, yet seemingly happy

Fake smiles and forced laughter

Sitting quietly listening and giving advice

Broken, yet no one knows

Jaded, but no one knows

Used, yet no one knows

Confused, lost, yet seemingly confident

Sarcastic retorts and sly smirks

Trying hard not to be found out

Enraged, yet no one knows

Saddened, but no one knows

Numbed, yet no one knows

Wounded, torn, yet seemingly normal

Blank looks and day dreams

Hiding the horrors of her past

Silenced, yet no one knows

Fooled, but no one knows

Emptied, yet no one knows

No one knows the horrors of her past
