Hard

It's hard to look into the mirror
And smile at what you see
To feel proud,
pleased
of the haunting image

It's hard to walk down the streets
And feel a sense of calm
To be carefree,
relaxed
under the microscope

It's hard to speak a word aloud
And feel as though it's your own
To feel the same,
unchanging,
from the past

It's hard to fall in love
And share your heart's voice
To reveal,
uncover
what's locked inside your breast

It's hard to live and breath
and enjoy life
To feel content,
happy
without the answers

It's hard
