And so I will continue to put on my happy face because this is what is expected of me. I will keep on smiling even though I am hurting inside. I will continue to be a stronghold, even during times that I need support. I will hold back these tears made of secret wishes, silent conversations, and clandestine memories. I will continue to be that girl with the all too-eager smile, all bright eyes and white teeth knocking into each other because I just want people to see what I choose to show.
But at the end of the day when I am at my most vulnerable, lying on my bed and letting my thoughts run wild, I think to myself, fuck it all, let's sleep.
