Do You?

Pain that no one can understand. There's a hopeful strength to it though.

Everyone around me
No one seems to know
They say they get the pain I hold
But do they really?
Hold your friends close and your enemies closer
That's what they say
But is it truly that?
A wall to surround
To cushion the blow
I will surrender to the weakness of tears
But not the strength of my soul
They don't know me
Why would they?
Who am I truly?
Who am I really?
Just a soul holding secrets to be locked away forever
For my eyes and God's
Who are you to assume?
I am me
Pain and all
I hold my loved ones as close as I can
I don't give in and I stay strong
You don't know me
Do you really?
