Tears, unshed
Shining in tired, red eyes
Mirror self aghast
Why is it that I can cry over a dog being put down,
Not a drop for myself?

I don't understand
Don't
Don't
Don't
Get it

Sadness unexplained
I wish I had a reason
I wish I had a way to relieve these woes
I wish
I wish

Neil Hilborn is the man I wish I could be
To express
To allow
To inspire
I have nothing, am nothing

I didn't grow up that bad
I'm in decent health
Decent job
Decent life
Why do I hurt so?

Why?
