Feeling alive

The pain you hide

the anger you told

the things got you tongue tied

and the stories you sold

you thought they will make you bold

enough to run and hide.

The pain you hide

are still alive

just waiting

waiting

to cut the air in your throat

and to sink the boat.

So for you to jump, to jump in the water

to alter who you are and to keep your

pain behind your anger

because it keeps you feeling alive.

Tonight…

like a metronome, time is passing by

waiting by the phone for a significant ring

from an important person…

that may or may not call at all

my heart is beating fast, my spirit is down

clouds are heavy carrying threats of rain

I will walk away after tonight, leaving this

unfortunate night

this heart of mine can’t bear anymore pain

and I know you don’t care

anymore…
