"No one talks about the pain that hides behind a smiles"
...Are the words that are supposed to describe us
But its way more than that, it's not just the smiles.
It's the "I'm just tired" or "I had a nightmare last night" and the "I'm still recovering from a cold"
It's the quiet headspaces being blamed on 4 little letters.
It's the silent 2 minute cries in the bathroom and quick recap on how to smile.
It's being called a bitch, when all you have been doing is trying to be there
It's being called unthankful when everyone throws what they did for you in your face.
It's the 'feeling alone in a crowd'
And crying once everyone is asleep.
It's the trying, the mean words, and aggressive gestures.
I know we seam like rocks
We seem like nothing fazes us or that we can fight fire
And extinguish any flame.
But its never that easy, it almost never is.
Its the dreadful thought of death creeping up at every downfall you get.
so Please forgive us if we seem so....lost, so ungrateful, so mean, so stressed-out and anxious. I promise you we are fine...on the outside
