The Hardest Thing

The hardest thing is wanting to cry,



But not having the tears,



The hardest thing is wanting to die,



But wanting to hold on to the memory of the years






The hardest thing is faking a smile,



And acting okay,



The hardest thing is showing that your life is worth the while,



And that you have a lot to say.






The hardest thing is watching yourself decay,



As you continue your life,



The hardest thing is wanting to stay,



As you walk away to survive.






The hardest thing is acting like a friend,



When you want more,



The hardest thing is the end,
When all your feelings are sore.
