Hey Girl

When would you cease to fight
the pain you have kept inside,
When do you learn to let go
of love not fated for you.
When would you stop pretending
of things you think is  smooth sailing.

At night, I heard you weep
In the morning, I saw the stains on the sheet.
You deserve better,
better than those damn tears.

You think you are weak,
but I beg to differ you my sweet.
You are brave on your own fault,
giving your all to love at the most.
Unfortunately, to a man 
who doesn't see your worth.
