You repeatedly say, "tears are my eternal companion"
Covering your face, shivering
Gazing into the distorted dream you have created
Around you is the barrier you erected in fear of intimacy
But you spread your arms as if seeking for a warm embrace
Yet you are afraid of rejection so painful you wish to crawl away and just die
Smiles carved, laughters echoed and you still are lamenting
Saying you have been able to discard the past while gingerly caressing the faint scars
Surely they have healed, but the throbbing ache never subsides
Slipping into the madness of loneliness as your lies polymerise
Because in the past you have done much to hurt others
Because right now you are ridden with so much guilt
So much you isolate yourself in fear of tainting others with your own filth
So much you retreat back to the night cradle to return back to sleep
Lowering your voice as you speak, refraining from waking others
You still yearn for their acceptance although you are afraid of rejection
Perhaps it's time you forgive yourself
So shed away the agony you keep with you all the times and emerge anew
