Hear Me, My Firefly

Light House

I'm trying to give
a bright smile to
everyone in front
of me because
that's what they
wanted me to do

But in the middle
of the night my
lonely heart is
silently crying
alone, on this
four corner and
dark room

Honestly, I hate
pretending to
be ok, so maybe
if you'll ask me
I'll give the honest
answer

But, I hate being
weak in front of
everyone, to the
people who lean
on me, so I'm
trying to wear
my best smile,
acting invincible

Someone told me,
if you will used to it,
you will grow numb on it,
so maybe if I will still hold on it,
maybe someday I can't
feel the pain anymore

But silently, I'm hoping
that someone will
ask me if I'm okay
because I need
somebody to lean on
because honestly,
I'm so afraid and
weak

Like a light house,
at the edge on a
lonely island
standing alone
and lonely
but doing the best
to stand strong and
firm to fight against
the strong winds
and big waves
in the middle of the night
and give a bright light
