It’s hard to play pretend

Like there’s nothing happening.

You hope and pray everything will mend,

Because deep inside you’re truly hurting.

It’s hard to play pretend

Like you are strong as how you want people to see you.

You try so hard to bend and blend,

Taking every minute to get through.

It’s hard to play pretend

Like you can still smile ear to ear,

But don’t worry, these trials we surely can transcend.

I will do everything for you my dear.
