Nothing can erase the pain we feel,
It's nothing in comparison to the pain we deal.
We'd much rather hold this feeling near,
So we can remember how it felt to upset those we hold dear.

There comes a time when one evaluates ones self worth,
To revise all that ones done since their birth.
We've done amazing things, but the good never outweigh the bad
No matter how much we smile, there is no hiding that we are sad.

We wear glasses to hide our tired weeping eyes,
We put on that fake smile and wear it as our disguise.
The hardest part of being strong, Is no one asks if you're okay,
We know deep down there isn't enough on this Earth that we could say.

Are  you  okay?
