Downfall

Written Jul. 13, 2005

I’ll tell you not to share your sadness
But instead, to share your happiness
Speaking of which, I live by that law
It might sound good, but it’s my downfall
My faults and failures, I don’t show
Because I never want you to know
I have always tried to appear strong
When that image is completely wrong
The irony is, it’s my weakness
I’ve been afraid to admit this
It’s a fear that I cannot quell
Though for the most part, it’s served me well
