THE
QUIETNESS OF STRENGTH
Sometimes in life we
cannot show
The way we truly feel
We have to smile and just pretend
A facade that's far from real
Someone who pushes you to extremes
Or a person who isn't sincere
Sometimes you want to walk away
And act like you really don't care
They shouldn't take silence for weakness
For one day they may be surprised
Although they may think you're just a wimp
you may put tears in their eyes
The quietness of strength is a powerful thing
That may help you forgive though they're wrong
And although I know it's the hardest thing
Stooping to their level will not make you strong
