can’t complain
—————————————
why should i
dry my eyes
when only more tears
will run
in the place
of those already
fallen
sliding along
the old tracks
why should i
hide my pain
when my heart
is bleeding
and my soul
has no rest
and my mind wanders
with nowhere
to go
but try as i might
to let it all go
i find
i can’t
complain
for some reason
i can not explain
my tongue
will not allow
my mouth to
complain
i fear
the coldness of
the stares
that i think i would
receive
if i laid
my burdens
down to sleep
inside i keep it all
and i vow
never again
shall i complain
why should i
despair
when my joy
is all around me
i may not
have a friend
but i can not
complain
