I hide everything inside,
Cry when no one’s around.
Yeah, I put up a wall,
But do you love me enough to tear it down?
 
I don’t show sadness
But if you look close
You can tell something’s not right;
Story of my life, I suppose.
 
Everyday’s a lie
I have no real friends
I hate everything I’ve become
And you ask why I’m depressed?
 
My world is crashing down around me
But I swear all you’ll ever see is a smile
I’m surrounded by people
But I’m living in exile

Very passionate poem. I can completely relate. I'm the exact same way. Hiding puts you in dark places. Thank you for sharing!
