Your pain
Selfishly you keep your pain inside... only for you to see it's beauty
Denying everyone who loves you so much from seeing everything you are
Hiding your beauty behind a smile
Knowing the real beauty is what hurts you so
The beauty that pulled the tears from your eyes
The beauty that has cut your skin so deep
Why is this only yours to feel
What do you see when you look at your pain
Does that give you an identity
Did it consume your soul
The pain and pleasure of life turn into paint
Where does your brush lie
Where does your mind rest
If you decide to articulate your pain
Please let it be seen in the light
It maybe only your pain
But the beauty is for everyone
