You've only seen what I allow you to see. Filtered and remains the good side of me. I've always been a vessel of hope. But a part of me wishes to break free. The part I don't want anyone to see. I am not complaining. In fact I never once complained. I know I am loved. I know I am lucky. It's just, sometimes, I get really really sad. Stop this sadness, she said. But right now can I just cower in darkness? Tonight, let me be weak. Let me lose hope. Let me break down. It won't take an hour, I promise. Just leave me alone... for tonight.

Just Leave Me Alone... For Tonight
