People tell me to share how I feel
But I know if I do they will not understand
They will think I’m just moaning
That I just need to be positive
They don’t realise the truth
That every day I’m in pain
That every day is a struggle
Nothing I easy
If I open up they will just get bored
They will talk behind my back
Say I’m lazy and overreacting
If only they could walk in my shoes
People tell me they’ll help
But if I let them it’ll never stop
They will think I can’t do things
I’ll lose my sense of purpose
So I carry on silently
Doing as much as I can
Proving I can still do what I need to do
That I can still rely on myself
I’ve learnt to pace myself
Only speaking out when it’s really bad
When I can barely walk and I can’t hide it
But when I can I put on my mask and hide the pain
