People see the outside and think they know the story. They see the smile, the confidence, the way I carry myself… but they never see the battles that happen when nobody is watching.
I’ve learned that sometimes silence is louder than words. I’ve learned to hide the pain behind a smile, to laugh when I wanted to disappear, and to keep moving even when I had no strength left.
There are parts of my story I will never explain, wounds I will never show, and memories that still hurt more than I admit. But maybe that’s what makes me who I am.
So judge me if you want. Laugh if you want. Believe whatever version of me you choose to believe. You only know what I allow you to see.
And behind that… there is a whole story you will probably never know. 🖤🥀
