It takes immense courage
to listen about the dreams
you dreamt together with someone
while they lived it with someone else.
Quenching the thirst of
telling someone all that they lived,
while not realising that their words
are making someone else numb.
With every word she speaks,
with every word he hears,
with every word,
he is losing words
to speak to her and becoming numb
just like darkness
takes over the little light.
Sometimes truth is your light,
while the shadow of lies is comforting.
sometimes you are comfortable
in your own darkness.
Sometimes!
