I smiled even when my heart cried

Location

Pakistan

I had no pride,it was just that my dreams were of a big size
People used to criticize ,my dreams died
I said,on the right time I will rise
I smiled even when my heart cried
And still the world thinks
Being strong is something I never tried.

It all began from self-doubt
I was supposed to stand out of the crowd
Yes,I was silent but I wanted to shout
I forgot the things that made me proud

My brain and heart were at war
It was not about a house or car
I was a shining star
But in the end maybe it doesn't matter
I smiled even when my heart cried
And still the world thinks
Being strong is something I never tried
