Lying awake
I can never sleep
Holding Strong
I can never weep
Mending my halo
I can never lie
Constantly smiling
I can never cry
Playing it safe
I can never flirt
Shaking it off
Pretend it doesn't hurt

This poem was written...*thinks* well, basiclaly about how we try to live up to expectations of others, regardless of how it affects us.
