what i don't see won't hurt me

what i don't see
won't hurt me

what you don't see
you don't think about
my smiling face
my polite words
my courage
my silliness
my anger
resentment
fear
doubt
anxiety
you expect
you know


what you don't see
you don't think about
the silent tears
the swallowed pain
the dazed confusion
paralysing fear
deafening scream
maddening silence
suffocating loneliness
empty bravado
consumes me
inside
and out

what you don't see
you don't think about
what i don't see
won't hurt me
what i don't see
won't hurt me

that i believe
i must
what i don't see
won't hurt me
