It's Not Easy

It is not easy for me, even though I look so pretty.
I do not look like my pain, I never look like I am drained.
I always smile and laugh inside. I always tell myself you are
more beautiful as each hour passes by.  I always tell myself
you are here to fulfill, someone’s life with love and teach them
how to live.

We all have a purpose.

Hi Marian. I hope all is well. Keep an open mind about your purpose, because it may unveil that you are here to fulfill someone's life, that they may love and teach you how to live. Love, Curtis.
