WHEN I'M HURTING
it's easier for you to walk away
then it is for you to reach out to me.
it's easier for you to look away
than it is for you to see the depth of my despair
it's easier for you to look through me
than it is for you to see me
it's easier for you to distance yourself
than it is for you to really care
it's easier for you to hear
than it is for you to listen
it's easier for you to judge
than it is for you to understand
it's easier for you to label
than it is to get aquainted
its easier for you to bask in your joy
than it is for you to feel my pain
it's easier for you to bewilder at my mysteries
than it is for you to probe deeply into the depths of my soul
it's easierfor me to look away
than it is to let you see the feelings betrayed through my eyes
it's easier for me to cry
than it is for me to talk
it's easier for me to walk alone
than it is to risk rejection
it's easier for me to push you away
than it is for me to be held
