The Truth and The Lies

Dear family,

Life is hard but I show no fear

Everything is so clear

My head is held high at all times

I’m doing great well sometimes

I work hard with no rest

I worry too much and I’m always way too stressed

You guys envy my persistence

And I envy your distance

I travel alone trying to forget our coexistence

I try to say goodbye to this agony

But I’m thinking way too irrationality

I’m sorry I have to show this fear

But it’s the only way I can live

My head will hang low at all times

I’m not doing so great well sometimes

I don’t work hard all I do is rest

But I still worry and get too stressed

I envy your persistence

And you hate my distance

I travel alone trying to erase my existence

I’m saying goodbye to this agony

Yes I’m thinking way too irrationality

But loneliness is the only place I can feel so alive
