As sunrise comes near
My orb spill a tear
Approaching me is fear
Sharp words you will hear
Witness this, water, shells and sand
This moment “traitor” becomes my brand
“We cannot leave hand in hand”
Pardon for not confessing beforehand
We are polar, my dear
You belong with the sea
I cannot be without the city
Your expression screams “happy”
But I dance with lonely
“Opposites attract,” they tell me
Yet with my intense negativity
I fear to shatter your positivity
Am aware, you might cry
Anguish whispers “DIE!”
While I bid you “Goodbye”
As nonsense it may be
As stupid it may seem
Please grant me one plea:
Be happy without me
