Life is hard,
I can't explain why,
No one knows,
How hard I try,
When things are tough,
When life is bad,
I just pretend,
That I'm not sad,
I don't know how,
To let you know,
The pain I feel,
The hurt I don't show,
Life is hard,
Not just for me,
Things that happen are meant to be,
I can't be happy every day,
But that doesn't mean,
That things aren't okay,
I don't crave attention,
I thrive by myself,
I'm not always,
In need of your help,
Life is hard,
But things will be alright,
Now i sleep,
Through the night,
My life is on track,
The pieces are in place,
But I need my own time,
I need my own space,
I'm different now,
I need you to see,
I'm not anyone else,
I'm just me.
