Can't stop fighting

I can't stop fighting the fight, 

I have to keep pushing forward, 

Push through this pain to see a brighter future. 

Push through the anxiety that's tearing me up inside. 

I will be okay I keep reminding myself, 

I'm a fighter, I wasn't raised to give up. 

I was raised to fight the fight, 

Push through my fears. 

I feel like I'm standing in quick sand. 

Its sucking me farther and farther in. 

Reminding me of everything bad that could come out of this. 

I try to push the bad thoughts away but they just resurface over and over again. 

I'll hide behind this smile so nobody can see the pain I'm in. 

I don't want people to know my fears, 

I want them to think I'm this strong girl that can put a smile on no matter what. 

But that's far from the truth,

The truth is, I cry and I cry a lot. 

Mostly at night, into my pillow the tears get soaked into the sheets. 

I know my secrets are safe with my pillow. 

But really I know my secrets are safe with you too, 

I'm just scared to tell you all of my feelings. 

Scared you'll run from this, 

Scared you'll leave me just like everybody else has.
