I miss you, A lot I think about you Everyday Even though. I don't talk about you, I want to,  But it pains me to, When your name is mentioned And we talk about all the things You will never be Never do Never say I die slightly inside, My heart swells My throat clogs My eyes water And a tear as silent as me Runs down my face. They ask me why I won't talk Over. And over And over again But I can't answer For fear of losing it, Looking weak, Someone once told me During this time of sorrow That I was unusually strong And that it was a good thing I was So I could give others my strength Help them Like I helped myself Only they were wrong I'm not strong I'm as fragile as glass I just know how to hide the weakness and replace it with fake strength. I don't like people seeing me so fragile, it makes me feel less powerful, so I stick to the lie that I am strong.

Such a beautiful lie

But that's all it can ever be

A lie
