I let a few tears escape.
It's so dark that they wont be seen.
But only a few,
because I might be on screen.
I have to hide my fear;
Bury it deep.
I cannot scream.
I will not weep.
I must stay strong,
or else I will fail.
I have covered my anger,
under a veil.
They will not see me scream in the night.
I will not show them that I am scared.
I have to show them,
I will not be spared.
I can run and hide.
I can hunt and find.
Don't count me out,
I can use my mind.
So even if I am terribly afraid.
Even if I feel betrayed.
I will stay strong and show my might.
I will not go down without a fight.
