Pill for pain.
<p>"Ella, you're the bravest person I know"</p><p>But I'm shaking in my bones, that you don't know&nbsp;</p><p>"Ella, you're so strong"&nbsp;</p><p>but deep inside I feel so weak</p><p>My heart is heavy, my soul does seek.</p><p><br></p><p>"You're very pretty" Yeah I know&nbsp;</p><p>but I can't stop, my esteem so low</p><p>I'm the opposite of all you think,&nbsp;</p><p>Stuck faking, I forgot to be real.</p><p><br></p><p>I crave to be weak, to complain and cry</p><p>To not think of the after-effects, to just ask why</p><p>I want to be me, without the mask I wear</p><p>To freely feel, without a single care.</p><p><br></p><p>But I can't be weak, I must be strong&nbsp;</p><p>In this world, the weak are dead</p><p>Dead to defeat, dead to pain</p><p>And all their wishes remain unheard.</p><p><br></p><p>She is not brave, at least not yet</p><p>But she craves to be, the pressure rising&nbsp;</p><p>She's not amongst her peers, that I know&nbsp;</p><p>For I am her and she is me.</p><p><br></p><p>I understand too much and I want to be brave</p><p>To hug other, their pillar I cave</p><p>I offer myself, their pill for pain</p><p>But who'd be mine? My pill for pain.</p><p><br></p><p>~Estrella.</p>
