I hate to
watch you
irrationally misbehave
like you are
just doing right now.
Just keep wondering
how you will
end up if
you continue
like this,
you can't stand
all alone.
I keep wondering
how strong you
can withstand
against the odds
and pressures
all around you
without breaking down.
I love you
so very much
and it breaks
my heart to
see what you
are doing right
now to yourself.
I still care about
you despite
your hates and
unfounded fears.
You said I'm
clueless and you
don't want to
inherit my ignorance,
I sat down
right here thinking
just the same
thing about you.
You can't never
imagine ever
what is about
to befall you.
You really have
no idea what
you are
contending with.
I worry about
your stubbornness
to change.
I still worry
about you because,
when the eyes cry,
the nose runs.
My attitude will
always be based
on how you
treat me.
Wake up now
while others
are still in bed
to redeem yourself.
