Though I am in Pain

Though I am in pain

I will sit up tall

I will smile at you

and laugh the night through

Though I am in pain

I will cover it up

I don't want to ruin

our time spent in fun

Though I am in pain

I will do my best

not to show it

not to wreck plans

I don't want my pain

to be the cause of sadness

so I'll just keep it hidden inside

and bear it, bear it,

a moment longer

until the fun is done

and I can bear it no longer
