Hidden battle

I may not say it loud
I may not let it out
I might just move on as nothing is wrong
Though there are battles that go on
I might not reveal.
I might put on a smile
When there is so much that 
Goes on in life.
I do not climb mountains
I do not swim seas
I do not pull up a fight publicly.
I have climbed and swam through
Emotions that carry the weightage of time.
I have fought battles that left scars
Nobody has seen.
They talk about those
Who are known and have shown
Courage and looked strong.
They seem fearless
There is nothing to put them down.
I have been hesitant to take a step
As there is a lot that matters around.
I may not show the strength 
I may cry out at little things
But my brave friend does not mean
I am not scared
It means I go on and never sit still.
