Questioning
Who wants to die
Because your life is nigh
Because your mask is soon to break
You need to fake the pain
Because your distain
Is this in vain?
Do you refrain?
Will you sustain life?
Am I insane?
Does this entertain?
Are you humane?
Are we sane?
So many questions
But never any answers
—
Red blood
Orange flame
Yellow laughter
Green jealousy
Blue tears
Purple bruises
Pink cuts
Life is rough
I’ve seen all these things
I’ve felt all these things
Everyone knows these things
Everyone feels them
But why
—
I love you
I hate me
How could you love me
When I hate myself
Why do we live?
Why do we continue to suffer?
Smile, smile, keep it on
Just a little longer
Hide it all
You need to fake the pain
Because your distain
Is this in vain?
Do you refrain?
Will you sustain life?
I must say farewell
My dear
Do not fret
For I love you
And I will see you again
Soon
