Being strong doesn't mean you have to hold everyone up.
It means you can be stronger to show you love.
Sometimes, i feel like i can't break down.
I have to stay whole, to keep them from sinking or to drown.
My head spins a lot of the times, but staying on top is how i ought to be.
If only they can see.
If i lose myself
I lose self doubt.
Bring on the horror show
Life has taken its toll.
Crazed emotions, erratically outbursts of fear.
Heavy eye lids, hear comes the tears.
My conscience tells me to let myself go.
But if i do will they still love me so?
I held everyone together
Can't go on like this forever.
My heart just wants to love them.
But will i go through this over and over again.
