The Broken Side You'll Never See

For Andrea...My friend who stood beside me.
The broken seem to find me,
One out of a crowd of thousands.
Asking for attention and inspiration,
Begging for advice.
In my heart I know I'll never give them,
What they really need.
Because I'm just as broken inside as they are.
More than I'll ever admit.
You’ll never know it...
And I'll never tell.
The only thing that’s different between me & them
is.......
I've perfected the smile that hides my tears.
