Seems

Life is not always the way that it seems

Sometimes a nightmare is your only dream

People see your smile and think all is fine

They cannot see the pain that is in your mind

They think that you are riding so very high

They cannot see the hurt in you that you cry

You have no right to be sad they will say

They have never lived a life through your day

Stalked by your deepest of dark fears

Feeding off every drop of every single tear

You wish for the end to your nightmarish dream

They call it life but it is not what it seems
