Sometimes I believe that no one would care If I tryed to turn for help would anyone be there? Everyone around me thinks I am so strong Im sorry guys but you are all wrong No one really knows the real me I wear a mask so that underneath no one can see It's not a choice that I have to make I wear it for other peoples sake I let others believe that I am so brave The real me is dark and hollow like a cave My friends think I am happy all the time If somethings bugging me I smile and say everything is fine Only I know the real person inside But to the rest of the world forever it will hide. |

it may not be your best but it speaks to me. being a Mom, you have to be brave and strong and not show hurt. too many DEPEND on you. the frustration of this is great and so this is why I write. |

Sherri, we have all been forced to wear that mask from time to time. Just don't loose sight of the person behind it. As I've said, if you need to talk, I'm here. Hugs  Ruth ------------------ "The role of the writer is not to say what we can all say, but what we are unable to say." ~Anais Nin |

This is quite profound! I think everyone can relate to this! Very well done! |
