When did strong become weak

blindorburyme

I tell you in an age where everyone is allowed to be vulnerable

I like to be strong

that doesn't make me stifled

 

that doesn't mean I'm wrong

 

stop looking at me for softness

stop searching my cheeks for tears 

I'm happy with my armour

I've been this way for years

  • Comment from author about the poem: I was frustrated when someone said that I was difficult to love because I couldn't be vulernable. I think being vulnerable with someone is something they should earn, I wanted to demonstrate that strength can JUST mean strength.
