Paint

A Poem by Wordless_Prism
"

Its about being good at hiding.

"
Paint on my chest, a pretty little heart.    
    
Everybody hears, but no one's listening.    
Everybody is looking, but no one sees.    
    
Paint on my mind, always keeps it locked.    
    
Everyone says they understand, but they don't feel.    
Everyone knows, but they don't understand.    
    
Paint on my smile, paint on my smile.    
    
Laugh in the dark, make it sound real.    
Jokes with my friends, they won't know the difference.    
    
Paint on my face, smile for the mirrors.    
Pain in the eyes, smile for the pictures.    
    
Hello empty space, does pain make you feel.    
Everyone says their empathy, but only lost priced sympathized feelings.    
    
Look at this face, authentic and it's fake, hide this diseased disgrace, eat away this pain.    
    
Paint on me, paint on my face.
