You Will Not Be Aware

I go off into a quiet place
When I am feeling low
There I will cry for hours
No one shall ever know

Sadness can be hidden
If I keep it out of sight
I weep tears in silence
Hugging my pillow tight

Yearning is never heard
A heart aches silently
My face hid in a pillow
Sorrow no one will see

Its easy masking sorrow
You will not be aware
I can pretend all is fine
A smile covers despair

Good Morning Hope,
It is so nice to see you and read you, although, for the first morning read today, this made me feel very sad...whataya say, we go for a walk down by the ocean together...?  

  

I'm counting on your name....

Love ya

I could relate to this so much. I have tried to write poems similar to this before but have never succeeded in making the words come together as well as you have done.
