Silent Tears

Why me?

You’re too scared to kill me

You take my life, to make ends meet

Just so you can live your life

But I can’t live mine

Why me?

You judge me, before I even become something

You cry, and whine, and ask yourself;

“Why did it have to happen to me?”

What did I do that was so wrong?

Why me?

I feel I should blame myself for everything

But I feel there is a reason for everything

You just can’t see that

I saw something good out of you

Even though I never really knew you

Why me?

Only in this stage you will kill me

Because I haven’t been born yet

You’re too scared to kill me

When you really see,

That I am “alive” and breathing

I must have been destined for destruction

One way or another

Why me?

You decide to do what is easy

You only do what your friend’s think

Because you don’t think

You can’t see anything

All because you are just too weak

Why me?

To think, all this time I was thinking about you

Yet I am with you, I must depend on you

Truly my life will reflect off of you

Why me?

Life for me is hard even before the beginning

Please don’t do the common thing,

And think that it’s going to make things easy

Though, I am just an embryo

If you believe in anything

Believe that I will become something
