Nightmares and Banana smile

I had always been a talker,

But when I couldn't talk anymore, 

I became a listener, a silent sea.

I wanted to be there for all those

Who can talk and share their misery, 

As no one can be there for me.

 Because I can't tell them about 

those flashbacks and nightmares.

 Yes, all that happens in my head, 

But all those tears 

That trickle down my cheeks 

Make it a reality, make you a reality! 

You must be asleep when I might be lost in night

Having another outburst, a silent fight.

You did what you could,

without thinking about the cost, 

and here I am, living them as a secret.

 

But it doesn't matter; I have to wake up 

And put on a brave smile; a banana smile

And wear all those scars as badge of honor
