“keep your head up and soldier up”


Some people thought she was crazy;

some people thought she was weak,
only the real ones know what she’s hiding beneath,
something no one else could see.

The world is a cruel place;
no matter what you believe,
so hold on as tight as can be.

No one believed the person that she could be,
No one believed at all because they couldn’t see;
they couldn’t see the beauty she was hiding beneath,
Waiting to shine as far as the naked eye could see.

No one could give her the love that she needed...
the love that she craved,
the love that would ultimately lead her to her grave

This was one of the hardest to write. It includes raw emotions and hopefully it can be relatable.
