Dark Nights

On dark nights, in cold beds I cry
Tears of purity, tears of asking why
I cry with questions, Do they believe in me
Do they let me even try?
They don’t understand My effort
They can’t solve my Darkness
Bleeding with agony, I fall in pieces 
Pieces that are hard to be rejoined together
Pieces incurved, sharp, Broken
Never meant to be joined
People try to take the best of me, go away
Feelings just thrown away 
Not even give a thought about my tragedy 
My tragedy, my misery, my life…
If I messed up, I’m the bad guy 
If I did good still I’m the bad guy 
There isn’t a thing in them 
That says: it’s ok 
It was a mistake 
I didn’t mean too, no you did 
How come are you crazy? 
Is it craziness that causes mistakes?
Or is it their attitude that makes no sense
Sometimes I think adults make rules
Rules about what is right or wrong 
No sparkle in their eyes
No passion in their veins
They’ve lost the motive to feel 
To sense…., to forgive!
