of course, no one will ever notice that she cried her heart out last night because she made sure of it. she wiped her tears, put on her smile, and went about her day like nothing happened. she talks and laughs, but deep inside, her heart feels heavy. she pretends everything is fine because she doesn't want to worry anyone or seem weak. and sometimes she wonders if anyone would even care if they knew. sometimes it feels lonely to hide so much, but she keeps doing it. she tells herself she's strong, but being strong can be very tiring. still, she hopes that one day someone will notice the sadness behind her smile, actually see what she's feeling inside, and understand her without her having to say anything.
