When my friends need advice
I offer what I know with a smile
But behind that happy face sits a frown
For I have problems of my own
My friends are always there to help
But I don't like to share my pains
My problems are nothing of importance
And I don't want to disturb them with me
My friend's happiness is more important than mine
I bottle it up, every last pain
I just sit back and smile
Offering all the advice I have
But when I can't help
My friends that are close to me
It breaks me down so terribly
No matter what the reason is
Whether I don't know what to tell them
Or they just don't want to speak
I keep my smile on
For I don't want to concern my friends
And I will keep the smile on
For as long as I need to
Author notes
I don't care. Like it if you want to.
Just tell me what you think of it.

this a great write. i know exactly how you feel. i used to have the same problem. sometimes things just get so hard and we just dont know how to deal, so we keep it locked inside which only makes it worse. if you ever need to talk feel free to send me a message, maybe i could help. great write.

I do
It is spoken from the heart. You ahve to learn that friends are there for each other. As you were there for your friends, they are there for you. You have to share the pain before you can let it go. Nice write. -

I know that I should speak to friends more but I just have those few friends that think they are helping when they are making stuff worse. Some actually try to help but then I get angry because they feel bad for me. I wrote this when I was having some really bad problems in my head and I feel much differently than I did then. Thank you for reading it.
