No Tears

There'll be no tears from me today-

No tears that you will see.

I'll smile and you will never know

How sad that I can be.

I'll smile and joke and make you laugh,

And never will you guess

That I am lost and lonely;

From life I long to rest.

I don't want to burden you

With all these tears I hide,

So smile and go along with me,

Pretend I never cried.

For I know it makes you sad,

To know that I hurt so,

So I will hide these tears from you

And you will never know.
