Invisible Me

I feel so lucky, 'coz many people trust me,
I feel so blessed, 'coz many people rely on me;
They think, I have strong and tough personality,
That they found and got their strength on me.


What they don't realize is I am weak,
They don't see that deep inside, I'm sick;
It's them who are really strong indeed,
That they are the strength that I truly needed. 


I am hurt but I manage to smile,
I laugh when I am about to cry;
I keep going though I want to rest for a while,
I fall many times but again and again I try.


Sometimes, I want to show them the real me,
To let them know the feelings inside of me;
But I decided to be the one that they used to see,
And keep secret the true and invisible me.
