Vulnerable

Being happy makes me feel vulnerable
I feel like my emotions only
belong to that hollow jar inside me
It's so hard to keep it in,
yet so difficult to set it free

I am scared
that everytime I smile,
those moments will only turn into
a memory filled with regret and guilt
It's not your fault,
It's from the walls that I built

If happy only mean to bring me pain,
Then I'd rather be hurting
Because it must be so occasional
for you to see me smiling.
