This is not something that will go away if ignored

Pain is love

Anguish with a forced smile

Pretending to be happy

Because they say

You have to

Standing in the crowd

Alone

Voices suffocate

Yet you nod

And participate

Because they say

You have to

You suppress the tears

Hide the darkness inside

Play all the games

Because they say

You have to

All the time ignoring

The truth

You are dying

In this misery

Made worse

By all the things

They say

You have to

Do

Here
