Smile. Be a hero, Be your saving grace, But my exhausted bones scream, As I stand to present my case. I'm not a hero, I'm not saving face. Each breath humiliates my very existence. You say what I feel isn't real, You say it's all in my head, I'd never wish you dead, Never pray for your pain, But as your hollow motivation hits my weary ears in vain I end up wishing you my pain, and watch morbidly as you bear this labour and try to smile, be a saving grace. excerpt from a book I am working on. Perhaps the most intense work I have written. It's dark. It's painful. But it's raw and real. Here's to hoping I finish it. #yqbaba #life #pain
