To Hold Inside

I have seen things Things that keep me up at night Things time does not seem to erode I must remain strong To hold these things inside So you need not share What I must endure Please keep in mind I'm doing this for you One thing I demand Don't ask, don't tell Just remember this hurts me more than it hurts you There is a reason for this silence Please believe me, this is better for the both of us One broken heart is enough
