Don't start crying;

You wanted them to know.

But they don't know, do they?

They'll never know...

They won't know why you truly cry,

When they have to go away.

They won't know that you know one day,

They'll go away to stay.

They don't know the things you think about,

They don't know why you do,

All the silly little things that you do.

They don't really know you.

They would if you let them.

Why won't you let them?

Let your guard down,

Just one more time.

What could it hurt?

What are the chances,

Of them breaking your heart again?

Let it go,

Move along,

Forgive and forget,

And put the walls away.

Be brave,

For them,

For then, maybe they'll stay.

NOTE: Spur of the moment. Will have more of those to come.
