I'll resign, I will

no longer bear and downplay --


what keeps happening!

out here downplaying my feelings
both you & I
Megan H Jun 2017
She downplays my emotions
I may be sad,
But she's depressed.
I may be stressed,
But she's been running around all day.
I had a long day,
But hers was even longer.

I am unhappy,
But my emotions aren't as important
As hers.
And yet she is my best friend
And I love her.
So I will let her think
That she is hurting more than me.

— The End —
