As If Nothing Happened

I'm finding it harder,

To show sympathy,

We're living a lie,

Trying to act

As if nothing happened,

But it's weighing,

In the back

Of my mind,

Like a cinder block on

A paper towel,

I keep tearing,

Trying not to scream,

To get things straight,

So they'll go back,

To how they used to be
