The times

There are times when we'd smile even when we're hurt It wasn't because we loved putting up a strong front It wasn't to show off our expressional skills Sometimes, it's to show that we care That no matter what we're going through, we're strong enough for you There are times when we can't afford to give up Not because we want to be termed super heroes Not because we don't feel the pain in the depths of our muscles Not because we can't let our hard work go to waste But just because, we care too much to let go There are times when we stand up for you It was never because we had to but because we chose to Most times, we are stretched out too thin even beyond our limits There are other times when we become too weak to keep the strong front Other times, when the only thing we can do is give up Other times when we can't stand let alone stand up for anyone I've realized over time that the resilience was built way up and deep into our mindset Nevertheless, we chose to answer the call The call that formed us into what we've become ©Mega_word
