when tears fall from sky


in a world full of people I barely knew who I am in every second in every word that past my thoughts linger how am I supposed to feel to think? when I couldn't find any words to express my self there I sat wondering if its true that I am an emotional being was it because I care too much? or was it the world care less? was it because I fight for what is right or was it because there's no right to fight with? why am I entering a battlefield? when there's no fight to begin with? is it all in my head? or everyone else refuse to fight? why do I feel so alone but carry everyone else's burden why do it feels so heavy when my heart is already empty why do I care when no one else dares to why does my world so fast when I'm barely moving as I stare at my iced coffee I can't help but to cry a cry that no one could hear like when tears fall from sky
