Painting a Bucket of Tears

Pride holds still.
Ego makes me stand.
Confidence makes me walk.
But breathing is harder than I thought.

I said I won't fall.
Own words kept me drowning.
No colors will express how I feel.
Black and white is the only color I can see.

I want you.
I need you.
Should I step back.
Should I forget you.

Doubt makes me blind.
Trust is not in my dictionary.
Love is just a word.
Pain is the only I can feel.

I want to cry.
I want to shout your name.
I don't know where to start.
I don't know where to stop.

If only I could let you inside my heart.
A thousand smile will never replaced yours.
If only my mind let go the feelings.
Then I will be yours.

Strong is not the right word.
Coward it is.
Like a fragile glass.
Afraid to be broken.

Here I am standing in front of my reflection.
Like a tiger they thought I was.
But I was just like a little kitten.
Who wants to be loved.

If I ask you to stay, will you?
If I ask you to love me, will you?
If I say "I Love You" , would you love me back?
So many questions, but I don't know how to ask.

Forgetting is the only way.
Running from you is the only thing I can do.
Watching you from afar, makes me smile a bit.
Someday I will, someday I'll be ready.
