I hate the way

I feel so much emotion

all the fucking time

I hate the way

I feel the ache in my heart

when someone hurts me

I hate the way

my lips curl downwards

when I'm sad but trying to look happy

I hate the way

things break me

but I act like I'm not broken, mostly

I hate the way

something burns up inside me

when I'm angry

I hate the way

I can't look someone in the eye

Not directly

I hate the way

all emotion drains out of me

when I'm lonely

Now, there's no ache in my heart

My lips aren't curled down

I just feel so damn empty

Now, nothing's breaking me

or burning up inside me

someone please help me

Truth is, no one can help me

Well, there was one friend

She understood me
