Why does it matter
If I cry myself to sleep?
Nobody knows what's inside.
I've buried it too deep.

Why does it matter
If I have nowhere to hide?
My life is as bleak
As the moonless sky.

Why does it matter
If scars are what I hide?
The cuts didn't leave a mark...
The pain is all inside.

Good job. This fits together very well and the whole why does it matter thing makes a lot of sense because this is how a lot of people feel lately and you fit all that emotion into one poem with it smoothly all fitting together. Great Job.
