I used to smile a lot
To hide the pain inside.
I used to say, "I'm fine."
When looking miserable.
I'd hide all my feelings,
Kept them bottled up
Ready to explode.
I'm letting all the anger and pain
Out of it's shell.
No longer hiding it.
No longer hiding anything.
No more pain is welcome here.
Now I'm smiling because I want to.
Because I love to.
Not because I have to!

Your poem may not rhyme,but it has 100% truth to it,I kept being raped bottled inside of me for years and went depressed feeling like it was my fault.

ohh. its an amazing piece..simple yet meaningful...the situation which is shown is very true and when u try and conceal all ur emotions, they explode at sometime or another in form of anger and misery. the poem has a nice flow.
the ending is nice.
great write.

great poem, I can sort of relate because my high school expirience wasn't the best, so I had to fake liking it, anyway, now I am fine, I don't know if this is the same but whatever, again though, great poem, keep it up
