Ashley Smith Poet I do not know?

**my Silent Prayer

Lord give me strength
Each and every day
Please let me remain silent
And watch what I say

It's so hard to be the good guy
When I'm outnumbered 3 to 1
Especially when I'm tired
Of always being the one to run

But why do I always feel guilty
When I finally strike back?
Maybe because it's not who I am
Maybe it's all just an act

I'm not quite sure
Just how much more I can take
I'm tired of pretending my feelings aren't hurt
I was never one to be fake

Everything happens for a reason
Yet, still I question why
Do people push my buttons
Is it just to see me cry?

Someday the table's will turn
They'll see that they were wrong
Lord You don't give me more than I can handle
Just enough to make me strong
