Not Strong, Just Trying

September 5, 2015

I called myself strong,

because I have a rough past,

and, I'm still here.

But if I'm strong, if I'm still here,

Why can't I be happy?

The strongest people I know, SMILE,

and look at the bright side.

I wouldn't describe myself as strong, smart, or brave.

Because, I am...

TRYING.
