Stay Appart

Stay Apart Nope nothing is wrong That’s what I say.... Pretending I am strong.... When inside I really want to runaway.... Hiding become so exhausting.... The smile fades as soon as I am alone.... So many tears on my pillow resting.... Wondering how I got here on my own.... Looking for away out of the darkness.... Apart of me knowing I deserve better.... Fear makes me settle for less.... And always thinking about another.... It seems no matter where I go or what I do.... He will always be in my heart.... My shell he’s been able to see through.... Both of us still afraid so we stay apart.... March 26,2009 Bettie L. Avery
