Realization

Why must I do this,
deaden my heart once more,
and face this,
Realization one more time.

I feel so confused,
so apart inside,
I wish my heart would fuse,
and be whole one more time.

But again I must,
break me down,
For the flesh is weak,
and my heart misleads. 

My eyes see,
everyone else loving,
and having fun.
When I'm alone.

I guess its not my time,
but wish it were,
so I can stop these feelings,
and feel better inside.

Well day and day,
I must deaden my heart,
so that I won't be broken.
Broken where it can't be fixed.

Well I know what I must do,
that I must move on,
I hope someone will be there,
at the end of this tunnel.
