You give your all

And do not reap

You try your best

Yet go unrewarded

Then why do you try?

Why continue to suffer?

'Cause you're told


A few words

Should have been the best day

But falls to pieces

Tears I cry

A letter

I knew it was coming

But still it hurts

Tears I cry


Always part of the background.

Fading away.

Taken for granted

Expected to be there

Expected to help

Unacknowledged.


To stay or to go

To be loyal or be free

For duty or for the self

To serve or to be selfish

For those who need or for what I need

To stay in the cage or fly away free

To care or to be heartless

For old love or new

To stay or to go

Dilemma


I'm walking

On a tightrope.

High above the ground.

I keep walking.

A stumble.

Another.

Yet another.

I fall.

Falling to the ground.

It's hard to stay up.

We all fall down eventually.

No one can stay there forever

If you never go up you cannot fall.

But if you never go up you will never rise.

Falling.

I'm scared of falling


What is wrong with you?

Why won't you speak to me?

What has changed?

Is it you or me?

We used to be so close.

But it's so different now.

Pray, tell me.

What has changed?

What has come between us?

Is it someone else?

I'm the girl who went with you,

Just because you said.

Now you're leaving me behind.

You've torn my heart in two,

So I beg of you, tell me,

What has changed?
