Keep Your Head High

I know you hurt day after day. Sometimes you want to give up and tell them 'I'm not okay' Why do you hide the pain with a smile. Pretend that your okay for this short while. You push on through, day after day with no time for yourself ensuring that everybody else is okay. I see you crying late at night with all your children you struggle, you fight for something more for something to be right The payments are due and he cant stop yelling at you Your lost in this mess not knowing what is best The time is ticking these moments are tricky but you push on through though life is sticky
