PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You think I'm strong because I've made it through so much and I've survived

You say it means so much because I made it out alive

but I assure you that I am really weak

when it comes down to it, I can't even speak



You think just because I write down my pain and share it with the world

that somehow means I have talent

but my words are my survival

it does not mean they are a gift, heavenly sent



You think that I am okay because I have things that are good

the truth is, in fact, I really should

however I still feel the void deep down inside

Making me crumble beneath the surface, making me hide



You think you can just walk life through my shoes

but in reality if thats your bet, you'll lose

You would never see beneath the surface

you'd never think lifes worth it
