Holding back the pain

How do I pretend that everything is ok
When when the tears that are building
have something else to say

My eyes are out of focus
Looking thru the tears that soon will fall
Grabbing at tissues so I will catch them all

My jaw is hurting and trying to be strong
But if someone asks me how I am
Im not sure I can tell them nothing is wrong

Afraid I will burst and cry
And they might ask me why
I won't know what to say
