You think you are strong,
everyone talks about it,
such an independent,
you depend on none.
How can you do it
with no support,
totally on your own
you do it all yourself,
you talk to few,
confide in less,
such a tough cookie,
how do you confess.
You take all the challenges,
all the ups and downs,
you keep it all inside,
you don't want
anyone to know,
the path you choose,
may lead to discontent,
but, you keep on trying.

I think a lot of people keep on being strong, whether it's a mask or if it's who they really are. I don't think people should be afraid to lean on to others. You can still be strong with others help.
I really like the last stanza, and about keep on trying. Always a good quality!
