Unseen Battles", "If My Dreams Could Speak

I walk the halls with a smile so wide,
But inside, there’s a war I hide.

A hundred thoughts, loud in my head,
The fear, the pressure, the tears I’ve shed.

They say, "You’re strong, you’re doing fine,"
Yet they can’t read between the lines.

I fight the silence, I fake the grace,
While doubts keep dancing in my space.

No medals, no wounds for them to see,
But every day — I fight for me.

And though the world might never know,
These unseen battles help me grow.

If my dreams could speak, they'd say:
"We’re tired of waiting for 'someday.'"

They'd whisper loud at 2 AM,
While I pretend I don’t hear them.

“Why do you lock us in your mind?
We’re stars — we’re meant to shine.”

They’d beg me not to play it small,
To rise, to run, to risk it all.
