There is a point after the emotion has run its course When hope sadness regret loss and joy have all left and your stuck with the mess When you've read the words over and under and still arent sure what to say Should you say Could you say anything at all The point in the road where all options are a risk Like the heart has been left out of the sun so long it flinches at the thought of light Where it only took one straw a single grain of rice to tip the balance of what feels right.
