I'm like a rubber band
You can test me
You can stretch me
I can take it
I will endure so much distress
More than you would expect
Because I might seem weak

And when I do
I won't go quietly
I will snap back to you
And you will be hurt like me
All that pain in a second
After decade long build-up
And then you will see
I'm not a rubber band
Because I will heal
Even after I broke down
