A Lament

  Daily doses of unneeded challenges.

Why can't they stop?

Why do they continue?

I just want them to go away and never come back,

but they always do. 

Tears that pierce the eyes,

but never fall because I don't allow them to.

If they fall then the world would win. 

They'd know how I felt and that isn't fair.

I'll always keep it a secret I guess,

I don't exactly want them to have that power over me,

to know that they can make me cry.

I'll continue to tell them all my crazy lies,

and they'll believe it too

like they always do,

missing the hidden meaning.

I can say I'm alright,

and they'd never know.

That's how I like it to.

If they knew the truth,

and figured out how to control my emotions,

they'd bend it to their will.

Not caring how much I scream

or beg and plead for them to stop.

No, I'll keep it hidden inside of me and cry when it rains. 

This way no one knows the difference between

the water and my tear stains.
