Pain I Hold

DCcat1989 January 5th

You don't see the pain I hold inside

You don't see the tears I cry 

You don't see the scars I hide 

You don't see the struggle to try 

I pretend to be ok just to get through the day.

Lovely poem. You are strong for sharing how you feel when struggling, which is how we all feel sometimes! 💟💟💟💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

@DCcat1989 Very powerful, Cat - words I'm sure resonate with not only the vast majority of us here on 7 Cups but also with lots of people in the world altogether! Beautifully written too - perfectly captures how a lot of what we go through isn't seen by others - it's inside us, it's private and it's hidden. Thank you for sharing 🫂

I really relate to this.  Most people don't see my pain.  And I do a lot of pretending also.  :)
