Who Told You To Be Strong

CATEGORY

Views: 186

Who told you to be strong 

When you are not okay

It is okay to cry 

let those bad feelings go away 

Who told you to hold your head up 

When you are feeling down

It is okay to cry 

You do not have to hold inside

Who told you to be strong

Smiling, but your smile is not real

Who told you to be strong 

It is okay to feel what you feel

You are not wrong 

For not being strong

We have to deal with pain 

Before we move on 

And when someone says 

Stay strong 

Just know that it is okay

Not to be strong today.

Indeed, Sheltial Green. When the muscles of the body are put to the test, the firmer they become. Likewise, when we are emotionally tested, the firmer and stronger we become spiritually and in our belief in ourselves. Thanks for sharing this inspirational poem. Peace and Love.
