She keeps on going

*

She won't let those tears visible,

because people would think she's unable

She can't just say no,

just because she doesn't feel like so

She's afraid

She's anxious

She's fragile

She's one shaky girl, taking baby steps into this tough world

Sometimes she stops, to make sure her feet still feel the ground

And she keeps going

Sometimes she kneels, to let go of this heavy pain in her chest, to say the least

And she keeps going

The journey seems to never face the end

Those little blurry tapes from the past are still playing, loudly

She wants to shut it down, and lay that down on the empty road 

But no, she can't

In fact, nobody can

It's the war in her mind that sets it all

But they always say she fakes it all

Her self-soothing code doesn't match this hectic world

It's left with the fortress inside her, 

fighting against her own will, to just rest forever
