why_do_you_cry
pSyche why do you cry
when you sit there
alone in your room again
as you stare at the moon
(the only friend awake at this hour)

why do you cry
when the bitterness of life
comes seeping in to your room
chilling you to the bones
despite the thick wool blanket

why do you cry
when you realize that life
is far too comlpex
when no one holds your hand
or keeps you safe

why do you cry
why do you cry

why do I cry?
