Your Burdens

You strive to keep the world happy.

You push aside your feelings and happiness in order to make sure that those around stay happy.

You say it doesn't matter.

You say you are okay.

But I see the truth.

I see behind your mask.

I see it in your eyes.

All the pain you try to keep hidden. All the pain you won't share.

You tell me in bits and pieces, but I am barely scratching the surface.

Why won't you tell me?

Why won't you trust me?

You carry all the world's burdens.

Why won't you let me carry yours?
