Acting



Everything is falling apart
like a house of cards.
Ace acting like a 2
nothing to do.
Loving to the point of losing myself,
ended up losing you too.
Alone in the storm,
memories acting like bomb.
Is rain crying with me?
Or trying to hide me,
Tell me rain,
whose side are you on?
Choking in pain,
using inhaler is vain,
Is dying the only happy ending?
This empty void
Acting like a black hole
eating me up,
In lack of love.
People can't see
Something like the sea,
Bleeding instead of flowing,
tired of losing.
Acting like clown,
broken and drown.
