Invisible illness

when you walk into the other room and shut the door
though nobody knows
because you just have to cry

when people laugh when you make mistakes
when you say something wrong
or forget a word

and you laugh it off
but really it's hurting you

hiding
hiding in the pain

and writing about it
so you don't feel alone

knowing you're not the only one
but unable to touch anybody else who understands

anybody else who could share an understanding glance
or hold you while you cry
and not make you feel

like this

again
