Truth hidden behind a hideous disguise
Under the ashes of a secret demise
stacks upon stacks of painful lies
heartbreaking losses and severed ties
saying that this makes you happy
is just another false front
You hide away for days, even months,
thinking a word or two
letting me know you are okay
would kill
while I am on the other side
holding the pills in my shaky and clammy hands
knowing that I could take the pills
ending it all
and you'd never even care or call
