The tears hidden away
Never to be shown
To my utter dismay
Its only alone

When I can show emotion
Each day told
Never to cause a commotion
Always being controlled

Dancing like a toy
Pleasing all who see
What they always enjoy
Me never getting to be free

But to their utter dismay
It will all end one day

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
