Hurt

Eyes wide shut,
But I still can see what's going on,
Hurts like hell,
but I've gotta press on...

I tried to run,
but I can only hide,
I put on a smile,
but I cry inside...

Hurts like hell,
but I've gotta move on,
I can see,
but I let it be,
because all I want is for you to be happy...

Liberated?

Feels free,
like a heavy rock,
lifted from my chest...

Finally my beautiful brown eyes are opened,
I have been blind all these while,
Forsaking the closest and the dearest,

The sounds of birds singing,
Why was I so deaf all these while,
When sweetness was mine all along...

Feels lucky,
to have enjoyed the good,
and escaped the ugly...

Feels good...
to finally...
be able to be myself again...
