"she is perfect" Everybody said
Nobody knows the cost I paid
they see my smile, confidence & achievements
cause I'm choosing to keep my heart unsaid....
They all trust me but
results are the condition
will they be the same
if I couldn't meet their expectations?
Behind every appreciation,
is a long story,
of quiet sacrifices - hidden behind glory
of hobbies, sleep & peace of mind
always strong in people's eyes
Expressing my feelings is a nightmare
Being quiet comforts me & oversharing is a fear
I ask for friendships,
they fall in love
I communicate boundaries
but why is it never enough?
I overthink & feel things deeply
but never let them know & endure quietly
I carry responsibilities like pride
and pain like secret
but being the eldest daughter
I can't afford to break
neither have complains
nor desire to be understood
I'm still a believer
but with trust issues
I worry about possibilities
but plan my future silently
wanna make my parents proud
and working for it patiently
One day I'll achieve it all
be self dependent and stand tall
walk away from this house
not because I hate it at all
but to breathe for myself
just me & my peace over anything else
