Numb
Laughing.
They’re all laughing.
They’re all turning to me and wondering why
I’m not.
And so I fake a smile, laugh a plastic laugh,
and hate myself
for not being able to laugh genuinely.
They never suspect it.
They never think that I’m empty.
Hollow.
Vacant.
Void.
They think I’m fine.
I won’t be the one to tell them
I’m not.
