It's hard to be me,
dont even try.
It's hard to pretend that you're independent
when the truth is you're dependent.
It's hard to fake a smile
if all you ever wanted is to cry out loud.
It's hard to force a laugh
if you're about to sob.
It's hard to remain strong if you're weak.
It's hard to act brave if you are so scared.
It's hard to say that everything is okay
if it contradicts the fact that it's not.
It's hard to be alone if you're seeking for help.
It's hard to share happiness if you're not even happy.
It's hard to love when all you ever wanted is to be loved.
It's hard to stay awake at night, thinking of everything
if all you ever wanted is to sleep peacefully.
It's hard when you dont have someone who can listen to your thoughts.
Its hard when you want to cry but there's no shoulder to lean on.
It's hard to feel broken, sad, anxious, frustrated, empty and incomplete all at the same time.
It's hard to feel insecure to others because you know you'll never be as good as them; you'll never be good enough.
It's hard to be someone you're not;
someone who they like you to be.
It's hard to make everyone like you and be proud of you
especially when they're expecting so much from you.
It's hard when there's no place for mistakes and disappointments for you.
See, It's never easy to be me.
It's hard to be me.
