Took Me Away

I’m big for a while
Then small the next.
Happy then sad
In only an instant
Amazing how it happens

Amazing how well I can hide
Everything inside
Funny how you always think
That everyday I’m happy
Everyday I’m care-free
When really
Deep down inside me
I deal with so much more
I have to see so much more

It eats at me
Making me feel its pain
Never letting me go
Right when I think its left
It comes back to remind me
That no matter how hard I try
Sadness can come in an moment
In a flow of tears
That have no purpose, no meaning

Please don’t act like you don’t see me
It only feeds the pain
Helps it come more often
Makes the tears seem more frequent
My glow start to leave
Please don’t act like you don’t notice
As I start to fade away
Your one pretty smile
Has turned upside down
Just because you walked by
Without so much as a wave
Just because you ignored me
The pain took me away.
