How Long...


For how long can I say that I am fine

How long can I go on acting 

How long can I ignore the pain inside 

For how long can I be ripped apart 

How long....

 

For how long can I deny my feelings

How long can I go on 

How long....

 

How many times do I have to tell myself that I'm okay 

How many times do I have to ignore the facts 

How many times do I portray another 

How many....

 

How many and how long mean two separate things 

However at times they feel the same.....
