Poem I wrote--pre-op pain!
This Smile
Behind this smile
There are things you don't know.
Behind this smile
The pain grows and grows.
This smile is my shield
It hides for me, what is real.
This smile is my escape
From the hurtful words they say.
I know I'm fat
I smile
Trying to keep the tears back
I smile
Thinking of being thin.
I laugh
Thin? What's that?
