I wrote this a long time ago, originally intended as part of a song.
He hides secrets with “white lies”
Secrets that leave his soul to cry
He fights for every breath each day
Just to stay alive
He hides his pain with “I’m alright”
Knowing no one can see
inside his heart & mind
When his tears fall,
they fall in spades
Truth is he wants
to break his chains
If he could only find a way
