"happy"

"happy"

A Poem by Radacach
"

Written January 14, 2013

"
As I lay in the puddle of tears on my bed
I feel so alive
My mask has been taken off
It's truly me
The words I speak are so me
Almost too me
There so unclean that they hurt my ears

When I wake up from my bed and head out to school
I turn around and grab that "happy" right off the shelf
Just hoping no one notices it's a mask
I look so calm
So collected 

You could never tell that on the inside are scars so deep
So alive
That i relive them everyday

But when I get home I open up your stories and feel so alive

How can I ever share myself with anyone
When can I trust people to love me for my scars
For my scars make me
But at one point they broke me

So when I close your book
I take off that mask
Smash it to pieces
I tell myself tomorrow I will be myself

When I get up I make a new mask
A better one
One that can't be broken
One that can hide anything

Maybe one day together we can break it
But for now I'm fine with always being "happy"

"How can I ever share myself with anyone

For my scars make me

The crazy thing about having our own scars is showing other people that it's not just them in suffrage. They give people compassion to love each other, because they both see their own brokenness and choose to grow in each other. Great Job!

"happy" I've been there...it's not easy to be "happy" and I don't wish this "happiness" upon anyone. You are a bold poet! Keep doin ya thing ;p

Your poems are just, incredible. So real and relatable with beautiful words. I'd take more care in spell-checking your poems before posting; they're beautiful and flow but sometimes the grammar mistakes can take away from that.

I, myself, am notorious for little grammatical errs in my writing and it's something you don't really take notice of until you read someone else's and are able to point out to them the same mistakes that you, yourself make. I could find no problems other than those, the ideas were exceptional.
