I Didn't Know
You always smiled and loved life
I didn't know you were faking
You spoke to me kindly with words that I scoffed at
I didn't know you had no one be kind to you
You always made time for me
I didn't know you struggled to do your job
You brushed my insults off as if they didn't hurt you
I didn't know that they did
You hid your arms in long sleeves
I didn't know why
You look so wrong in a casket
I didn't know how much I loved you
