My bones are aching
for a tight hug
while my heart
screams thy name
to hold its every beat.

But my brain?
it's willing to die first
before it admits
and surrenders.

Why?
for it felt pain first
that causes too much

too much for the bones
to ache
and for its heart
to break.

"What did you trade me for?"
she asked.

"Happiness, " he answered,  then asked the same question.

"Unselfish love,"
she wanted to say.

But all she could utter was
"The same."

She couldn't say goodbye
so she wrote him her farewell.

He couldn't read her pain
so he left before she packed her suitcase.

You are allowed to wake up
and still dream..

like how you allow yourself
to die
and still breathe.
