Holding back

Holding back the anger,
and giving up my pride.
I wish I could have seen
what he would do with his lies.

Clinging onto sanity
but crossing the lines,
A new day awaits,
for my fake smile.

Holding back the anger,
and giving up my pride.
Staring at his picture
with a tear in my eye.

It's difficult to hold back
all these feelings I hide.
Taking in deep breaths,
I'm to numb inside.
