She Called Me Strong
She called me strong
How wrong she was
I can still see my scars
They sting sometimes
Just to remind me
I was weak
I still am
I heal just to be reopened
Torn apart again and again
There are wounds you do not see
But that I feel
I fight
But it doesn't mean I always win
No one can win all the time
Everyone is weak sometimes
I'm sorry to tell you
That your pain
Will remain
And if it does go
It will return
Suffering
Is a part of life
Being weak
Is a part of being human
We can't be strong all the time
And for now we'll remain
The weaklings that we are
We remain
Alive
And that is our greatest feat towards strength
We'll go on.
We'll survive.
