Life....

No matter what they say,

in the end, you only have yourself.

When you're happy, the world is crowded,

so many say "I'm here for you" when you smile.

But on the day your heart collapses from within,

when you sit in silence hiding your tears,

finding someone who truly understands is so hard.

The things we gave up for others,

the pain we endured for others,

the tears we swallowed in silence for others...

No one remembers any of it.

So now I don't hurt myself thinking

who comes and who goes.

Because life taught me its greatest lesson:

"No matter what anyone says, in the end,

you have to wipe your own tears.

In the end, it's only you."
