Pain within

I smile yet I’m sad

My tears run red with blood

My voice cracks with pain as I laugh

My chest hurts with each beat of my heart

But you only see happiness

My footprints deep in the earth from the weight I carry

My arms muscular but weak from picking myself up

But you only see happiness

My demons are mine to bare

You have a very creative way in expressing your emotions. Short but it conveys your feelings.
