JustBecause.

You won't know when I ache,
and when I do,
I hide my face and my sorrows.
from you. from you.

You might think that I'm alright
But when a fire fails to burn right.
it burns and consumes you,
whole.

I smile to say i'm ok.
It's not about me anymore, any way.
Yet I wished it was. but to do so is a sin,
I can't always commit.

This thirst is unquenchable,
and it statiates for your love.
one unrequited,
like a fake mirror that fails to reflect.

It aches like a knife,
within the heart, moving
in circles to carve a pattern of emptiness.
and all that everything longs for,
is just those three words.

You can't say.
You can't do.
You can't feel.
You can't anything.
You can't anymore.

and so you said. you said.
if only you knew the extent of how bad it cuts,
