Hidden Pain

[font=mangal]What am I doing?
How long can I play with fire
Before I burn?

This thing we have?
It hurts me
More than I could ever tell.

You make me feel
Like no one else.
With you I don�t pretend
I just feel.

It doesn�t change things
It only makes them hurt more.

Our perfect little secret,
A dark whisper
Hidden behind averted glances.

I don�t pretend no one sees
I know they do.
I just don�t care.

Your smile, your laugh
It reaches into my heart
And warms the darkest corners.

But it�s not as easy
As it should be.[/font]
