Why?

The tear filled eyes,
along with the reluctant smile,
why is it so hard to forget?

The ever present hollowness,
the ever growing loneliness,
why is it so hard to be complete?

The sure steps,
Steadily walking away,
why is it so hard to accept?

The never lessening pain,
the never ending love,
why is it so hard to let go?

Never Ever

Encased in defense,

Don't want the walls to be broken,

Don't want the hurt again,

For I won't be able to bear it.

Encased in rage,

Don't want it to simmer down,

Don't want the insanity again,

For I won't be able to become sane.

Encased in pain,

Don't want it to reduce,

Don't want the tears again,

For I won't be myself ever.
