It's been so long,
Since I let myself cry.
I told myself I didn't
Deserve to be crying
About my problems when
So many others had it worse.
I just soldiered on.
I tried to keep pushing on,
I tried to be strong.
But it's been so long since I've been me.
Since I've been happy.
This huge battle is so enormous,
I feel like I'm fighting constantly.
But,
It's always one against fifty million.
And my one doesn't really have a chance.
It's harsh reality.
Not everybody's mind is all sprinkles and sunshine.
I'm just not good enough.
My dad implied it perfectly.
My efforts aren't good enough.
Nothing I do is good enough.
But it's been so long,
Since I've let myself cry.
But that's not the real truth.
The real truth is that it's not that I never cry.
I do.
I just never let anyone see.
