Silence speaks mystery
That leaves you with anxiety.

The error is hazy
The gravity is indiscernible.

I'd rather you nag at me
Than being given
a silent treatment.

Please
Just tell me
What's wrong?

Death
Is more painful

When it happens
To your loved one

Than your own.

Loving someone
After knowing
They used to betray your trust.

Yes it seems possible now
But for how long?

The scars dried
Yet they may bleed anytime
With a simple nudge
Of the past.

Yes you can still love them
But never the same.

You cannot find yourself
On the surface of comfort.

You are introduced to yourself
By the depth of adversity.

Minimise distraction
Maximise intention.

Minimise commodity fetishism
Maximise giving out love.

Love people, use things.
The opposite never works.

I showed you my affection
You pushed me away
I was too clingy.

I focused on my life
You said I pushed you away
I was too distant.

It seems like
I just can't
Hit the right spot.

Mom
Dad
I didn't grew up
To be who
You want me to be.

How ironic.

For your approval
I had to conceal
My truth
With pretension

When you
Taught me
To never
Tell a lie.
