One Day
Keep going
Dont stop
No time for rest
My eyes hurt
strained
with worries
stained
with tears
no one cares.
He will
the man I imagine
while I'm sitting here not doing
what I am suposed to do;
the man that will love me for who
I am
and let me stop
and rest.
He will dry my eyes
and rub my back
till I fall asleep
Until then
I will keep going
pretending it's all ok;
please the world
smile all the time
"happy girl"
that's what they call me
though they dont know
I am yearning for love
yearning for rest
from this demanding world
in which I live
In which I aim to please.
