Sometimes the people closest to you bring you down,
Not up.
Sometimes you need to cry,
But you can't, so your eyes burn.
Sometimes you want to scream and yell till your voice gives out,
But you just sit there silent.
Sometimes you just want to go to sleep happy,
But it doesn't happen.
And sometimes you just need a wish,
So you look to the stars,
And wish with everything you have,
On stars that died long ago,
But you do it anyway.
Because it gives you hope.
And sometimes,
That hope is what hurts the most
