Control

How do you tell others 
that something is wrong
When deep down inside
You don't know what's going on

How do you get up and
smile and laugh
But when you're alone
it's just tears and sighs

How do you envision a
strip of dripping paint
without thinking of
the joy within

How do you stare at
those shapes in the past
Eyes that stare and glow
Surrounded by hearts

How do you see others'
sprightly bright lights
Without thinking of your own
So dull in sight

How do you live
Yet not alive
Just a sleeping zombie
A grenade in five

How do you lose all
of this thing called hope
when all this time it's been nothing but
Get-go and control.
