Lonesome Pain

Going through internal pain and having to be around family during the holidays

Lonesome Pain

Right now as I sit here
I feel so alone
room full of people
I want to go home

my family has gathered
today is the day
to share our thanks
it's the holiday

my tears are falling
I can't let them see
they won't understand
the pain in me.

I fake a smile
they see it's not real
I know my fate
has a permanent seal.
