Friendship Shield

(20/07/2011)

Are those tears on your cheek?
What’s the blank doing in your eyes?
How can you be this weak?
You know cry is enough than cries

You were as bright as the stars
And as solid as iron
Now look at your scars
Do you have any particular reason?
Why the pain stroked you?
For truth only, please, share me the clue

Why you keep running,
Toward ambiguity instead of reality?
Can’t you just try not sobbing?
Hurt, is only feasibility
Come to me and be opened
Closer to me and you’ll be listened
Let me hold you
And together we can get through
