Humans are strong
But the bonds that bind us together are weak;
Deceiving,
Like aluminum,
Appearing to be strong
But easily breakable if force is applied.

I sit and wonder
Why these bonds slowly deteriorate
And why memories
Are hazy and confusing;
As if these moments never happened.

Why is it that losing something
Is the main cause of sadness?
Why is that the world keeps moving
When I am stopped in motion,
Wondering why people keep passing by
Without bothering to see if I'm alright
Or to ask how my day is going

I treat it like weather:
There is nothing I can do to stop the rain from coming,
And I can avoid it as much as I want to,
But if I ever want to go places,
I must endure the conditions and
Fight through,
And hope the sun will come out eventually.
