Nobody Knows

What nobody knows...

Nobody knows what a mess that I am, 

Nobody sees when I'm crying to sleep, 

Nobody knows how all this began, 

Nobody notices me sinking so deep... 

Nobody knows how I'm fading away, 

Nobody thinks that my smile is fake, 

But oh but it is, it's forced day by day, 

Nobody sees how inside I shake... 

Everyone thinks that I'm quiet and shy, 

But they don't know that I'm hiding inside, 

Hiding and crying, letting the world pass me by, 

Not even trying, but pushing away from your side... 

Nobody knows that I don't care, 

Nobody sees me when Im falling to pieces, 

Nothing I like, no emotion but despair, 

I've stopped even trying to look for releases... 

I just want to leave, leave this life, I'm alone, 

Disappear off the face of the world, 

Leave and be gone, find a place to be home, 

Disappear, leave who I was in the cold... 

No greater mercy than closing my eyes, 

Than lying asleep, the life seeping away, 

Nobody knows, that life I despise, 

Nobody knows that i don't want to stay...

A really touching and well written poem. This piece holds so much power and emotion and the rhyming scheme is very well done. It flows very well :)
Keep writing!
