why are you the only one who gets to hurt?
you can't see me, no one can!
no one ever does, and no one ever will!
what's inside is beyond anything you can imagine
and it hurts to hold it so
you see the surface,
the scratches and chips,
the occasional crack
but still
you never see me
sometimes I doubt you ever will
but damn it if hope isn't a stubborn little bastard
You've no idea the lengths I would go through
You've no idea how far I would go to try
do you even hear me???
do you, really?
you ask the impossible of me,
but I fight not to ask it of you
because it's not fair to you
or to my heart
I'm so so tired
I've lived
