Everyones hero
It’s hard to be strong,
When you are always the designated ear,
The one everyone tells everything to,
Their shoulder to cry on.
Because you always understand,
And people love that about you,
They know you’d never tell,
Or laugh,
Just listen as they spill their soul.
It’s hard to stay calm,
To not let yourself be effected,
To hold back the tears till you are alone.
There is no one to listen to you when you need to talk,
It’s like the rest of the world forgets you are only human,
That things affect you too,
You're not a superhero.
Things are just difficult,
When you are everyone else’s anchor in life,
When you have to be the strong one,
Not only for them, but also for yourself,
You have to find strength or crumble.
Weakness is not allowed,
That is not the person you have let the rest of the world know,
You have to be strong, and brave,
They’re all counting on you, remember that,
And they’re watching, don’t screw things up.
Got to be perfect,
They won’t understand if you aren’t.
You’re expected to be the way they want you,
A standard of perfection,
It could kill you in the end,
But you have to keep going,
They need you,
And you need them to need you,
Don’t deny it.
I know it’s hard,
But you’re hooked, aren’t you?
I know you are,
So why are you complaining,
Complaining won’t help,
Suffer in silence,
Be what they expect you to be,
You can do it.
Don’t cry,
Chin up,
Be strong,
Hold on,
Don’t give into weakness.
