will i keep living like this forever?
Will i keep living like this forever
Smiling like nothing touches me
Putting on a face that says I’m fine,
While something inside me quietly falls apart
Will i always be this way?
I dont know how to put it into words,
Or how to let anyone see it.
Maybe i’ve gotten too good at hiding the cracks
May be im afraid that if people looked closer,
I’d notice how tired im really am.
So i keep pretending.
I stay strong
I laugh when im supposed to.
But inside everything feels heavier than it should be
Like waves pulling me under while i stand there acting like i can breathe just fine.
And no one hears a thing :)

this hit quietly the last few lines especially stayed with me i hope writing things like this gives you even a small space where you do not have to pretend
I never thought resonating with a thought would make it this sad. on one hand it is good to know that i am not alone to be feeling these emotions but on the other i hope you get so much happiness so soon that you read these words that you have written and wonder what you were ever sad about.
I hope you feel atleast a little bit of happiness in the heavy world you are living in.
