When people ask me "why are you always sad?" I just reply with "how do you know I'm sad?" And then I put on a fake smile. It's just that I don't want people feeling sad for me, I want them to see me as a strong person. And that's easier than having to explain a lot of things to them, and they will not understand. Sure, they may pretend to understand, but I can see how they fail to see how broken I am, It's because they don't know me. They don't understand this feeling of dread that holds you back from doing things that you love, the unexplainable sorrow that doesn't seem to leave
