Tried to wear make up
and smiled
only to find out
some marks can't be
concealed by colors.

Tried to wear wings
and fly
only to realize
how powerless
I am against the wind.

Tried to step
on the ground
away from fire
only to melt.

And became ashes..

Burnt from pain
brought
by walking away
from someone
I used to love.

I tried.
And still
trying

at least.
