I'M Not As Strong As You Think I Am
I'm not sure how much more of this I can take,
At any given moment, I may break.
It's harder than I thought, to watch you die.
I say "I'm good", but it's just a lie.
Every visit, leaves me broken.
With every jumbled sentence spoken,
You fight so hard, to maintain your grip.
Even still, I watch you slip.
I'll laugh and smile, as long as I can,
But I am not as strong as you think I am
