Ache

Happy Valentine's Day 2012.


My heart weeps helplessly as I cover the pain with a mask. Holding to it tightly, I cannot pry it from my own fingers. Tears are held back and drowned as they try to surface. For long periods of time they hold their breath, but they know that death is just around the corner. Their lungs can only hold for so long before they lay dry.

My emotions are covered. Like markers with different colored caps that don't match, there is much confusion once revealed. Like a puzzle, only certain instances or events will let those true colors be revealed. Although, there is no telling when they will appear.

I bleed until I see the day that all turns for the right in life; my heart soaked in the poison of dark. Time seems to be stubborn and selfish because it reveals what it seems fit rather than considering what would be best for each individual. I have been holding onto this rope that time has given me with hope that it would lead me to these answers, but I am only left with disappointment.
