Whispers of Struggle

If he loves you, his love will stay,Growing stronger every day.If he cares, you won’t have to chase,Because his heart is already in the right place.

It’s the empty seat at the table now,And the way no one remembers how.It’s hearing a name, but not the voice,Like life moved on without a choice.It’s the texts unwritten, the ones unsent,The endless nights are quiet spent.It’s holding back tears when someone asks,Pretending it’s fine from behind a mask.It’s all the words that stay…

I’m that friend who listens, who nods and stays strong,The one who carries all the weight but won’t say what’s wrong.The one who gives comfort but never receives,The one who hides all the hurt that no one ever sees.

For years, I masked the me within,A battle I seemed to never win.From skin to body, heart and soul,I played a part, I was never whole.I saw the world through clouded eyes,Thought I was lacking, bound by lies.Covered up, I played a part,Concealing scars upon my heart.But one day dawned a light so true,I learned…

Why do you try to fix yourself on the outside,With things that will fade and soon subside?The real work starts with the hurt that’s within,For only then can true healing begin.

They’ll tell you what you want to hear,With words that seem so sweet and clear.But don’t believe their perfect lies,Behind those smiles, there’s no surprise.A boy will play, a boy will cheat,He’ll say he’s yours, then hit repeat.He’ll break your heart, just for the thrill,Leaving you empty, standing still.But a real man, he knows what…

You’ll miss home when you’re all alone,And no one’s around to pick up the phone.You’ll miss the smell of dinner at night,And the way your room just always felt right.You’ll miss the couch where you used to lay,Fighting for the remote at the end of the day.You’ll miss the nights when your mom tucked you…

If you don’t mend the scars you bear,Your wounds will bleed, spilling everywhere.It won’t just hurt those who did you wrong,But wound the ones you love all along.

The one who’s worth forever and more,Is someone you’re sure is worth fighting for.You might argue and you might shout,But your life feels empty without.They’ll challenge you, push you, make you grow,But love like that is worth the show.Through ups and downs, you’ll always know, they’re standing there they’ll never let go.

Don’t let anyone bring you down, show them who you truly are,Don’t let anyone steal your joy or set the bar too far.Don’t let anyone take your kindness; just let yourself be free,Don’t let anyone make you forget—you’re all they’ll ever see.Don’t let anyone fill your heart with fear; you’re not alone,Don’t let anyone cloud…
