Waiting and wondering. Not knowing but hoping.

Light blocked out by the shadow of past mistakes.

Stuck in a rut paved with tears from yesterday.

Brick after brick placed to form a wall around the heart.

Sabotaging love before its had a chance to start.

Imitating courage, while preaching open minds.

Embracing the façade while the real you hides behind.

Wishing for a rainbow, while expecting only rain.

Deciding not to feel at all, just to avoid the pain.

Asking for some answers, while wondering which are lies.

Giving pat responses, expecting you to read between the lines.

Visualizing endings, when it’s actually just begun.

Wanting to be strong, when every fiber says to run
