Have you ever been so pissed? So sad.? So irritated.

And someone asks you: why?

But your mind goes blank.

Then you ask yourself,

Why am I sad?

I have a roof over my head.

I have a family.

I have food everyday.

I have friends I trust.

But why am I sad?

You don’t know. But you don’t say that because that leads to more questions.

And you know. No one will ever understand.

So you keep quiet.

And deal with it.

Because you are your own hero.

You have to be strong, so that you save yourself.
