I hear words,
I cant speak.
I laugh,
but I don't understand.

Rain washes away my sorrow,
put the messy grease of pain is still smeared.
My guard is up,
but low enough
to fall into a dark pit.

People would die to feel the way I do about someone,
but for me, it hurts too much.
I can't handle love,
fragile, breakable, cunning love.

© Zamir A., Multan, Punjab, Pakistan
