Not that Strong (Ashley Franco)

Not that Strong



You judge but you do not see


The person that is the real me.


You only see that nothing is wrong


But sorry I'm not that strong.



I don't want to seem sad to you


Acting strong is just what I do.


So I act happy go lucky everyday


To make you think that I'm okay.



I cannot show the hurt inside me


Because people laugh with glee.


I hide the hurt for my eyes only


And act like you didn't hurt me.



So the next time you see me


Stop and look at me closely.


Don't assume nothing is wrong


Because even I am not that strong.


@AshleyFranco


(This is a poem that I wrote for those people who think I'm happy go lucky all the time just because I act like it! No I'm not mad at them! I just wanted them to understand the real me! It perfectly describes my nerve condition Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. Nobody can see the pain I go through and nothing shows up on tests either so people assume I make it up.)
