Great Sacrifice
You give your heart with your all,
Now all that’s left are late nights to bawl.
You gave to friends where are they now?
You know you can succeed you just don’t know how.
They say you are strong inside stronger than most,
You look in the mirror you feel you have enough to boast.
You run as fast as you can but it never seems to be enough to proceed,
You begin to wonder why you wake up at times when inside you bleed.
How can you be the greatest but no one appreciates the best?
You even try to blend you start to act like the rest.
Your heart becomes black sick of caring, and feeling the pain,
You carry scars that seem impossible to shake off like a chocolate stain.
Things progress yet deep inside you know your happiness is a lie,
You carry a smile and always say hi when you really want to say goodbye.
Is it fair to wake up every day pretending & trying to convince others things are cool?
No it shouldn’t be others you are trying to fool.
You know this deep down but don’t want pity,
You just lay there, fend for yourself and act like a new born kitty.
You feel like giving your heart in such a strong way might not have been so bright,
You now feel you’ve lost yourself and opening up to anyone else has become your new fight.
Now you ask was it truly worth the price?
The crying, the pain, the scars, the trauma all have been attached to a great
sacrifice.
