Stronger Hurting deep inside, Trying to hide the pain, Wishing that it would, All just go away. Waiting for the sun to go down, So I can hide my face, And leave in its shadow, The tears and disgrace. Will there ever be a day, When I can set things right? Or will it all come crashing down, With sorrow, pain and might? I wish I could just stand up, And show them that I care, Show them that it hurts me, And that it isn't fair. I continue to go through times like these, But I fail to see why. Is it to teach me to stay strong, Or to show me it's okay to cry? Why can't I stand up for myself, Or make my #life change? Why can't I be braver, Or stronger in some way? I wish I could just reveal, The feelings deep inside. But that would just cause more distraught, And show you that I've lied. Those days when I would used to say, "I have the greatest #life," Are ending with my childhood, I must be stronger to survive. I wish I could still act myself, And that I didn't have to hide, These feeling that I only just contain, Hidden deep inside. One day I hope I can show them, How much they affect my mind, But until I can be that strong, I'll try to be more kind.
