Wear and Tear

No more will anymore
Just want to lay down
On the grass, near the stream
I want to hold hands
With you
The best of days are far behind
Had my share of laughs
And tears
A few...
To the predator
Behind the bushes,
I'm all yours,
Your prey.
As if I care,
My aching body...
Beaten-up...
My eyes are locked,
Onto the horizon,
Where the sun
And the sea
Make sweet, sweet love.


Don't be fazed
If and when
You see tears in my eyes.
I can assure you
It doesn't hurt me anymore.
My darling...
At least I can still breathe,
At last we arrived at the conclusion.
I am lost.
You may mistake me for my thick skin,
That I'm as hard as rock.
Very few would know that
I'm so fragile
Inside...
It's only fair that I look tough.
Few unshattered pieces of glass
Gotta take care of them, you know.
Maybe that was also the same
for him.
Will I ever know, I doubt.
Maybe it's in the blood, after all.


I just don't know what went wrong.
