Could you step into my shoes?
Live the life that I lead?
Could you handle the pressure?
The downfalls?
The everlasting pain,
Physically .
Emotionally.
It never quits,
Or even dulls to a faint touch
Of the a flame,
That can't be put out.
Could you handle it?
Could you smile?
And just take it all in.
Could you even stand?
With the weight of fear
Crushing every inch of effort
You're able to shoot back.
Could you handle the disappointment?
The shame.
Could you even take in the reality?
But don't shed a tear.
Don't show weakness.
Then
Welcome to my life,
Cuz it's hard to even want it anymore.
