My voice
Coming face to face with expectation
Others wanting my life to go in a certain direction
Without helping or guidance through conversation
One is supposed to know
The path of a hero, without sharing
All the scars and tearing that it takes
I had to comprehend what I didn’t want
And take those lessons to help me carry on
Others may be confused by the picture
But that may be because society
Has a hard time handling vulnerability
And so pressure from others hovers above
As some say my wounds aren’t healing fast enough
Supposed to be better than what is
The world on my shoulders since I was a kid
