Time after Time

I cry,
But stay strong for them to see.
I don’t want them to know,
Of the brokenness inside of me.


I put the world first,
Making sacrifice after sacrifice.
A constant life, led by the mind,
But my heart must pay the price.


Chances come and go
And I must choose what’s right and wrong
The problem is the thin line between,
Which has wavered for so long.


For whom do I thrive for
And why?
If I’m the one in which they must depend
Who is it that I must rely?


I give up so much
For those that I hold dear.
Stuck watching those golden opportunities
Slowly disappear.


I will settle,
Just as I have before.
I might not get to have it all
But at least there is happiness for those that I adore.
