Trust.
The word thou want to earn;
Rip and squeeze it from my soul— try.
Uttering such valiant remark,
Seriously doesn't know the depth . . .
The weight it carries along.

Pride.
Prying not, thy said,
Reprimanding me for its height,
Irking thou confessed.
Did thou even know what measures it takes?
Edge I keep out my fragile self—the sole light I grasp on.

Love.
Let me set 'tis straight—
Of all the things thou desires,
Vain, my dear, find another one.
Everything thou give — affection thou shower upon me— that I couldn't reciprocate.

Sorry.
Such a cruel word,
Offhandedly utter.
Ruin ev'rything,
Resistance too much for thee to keep up,
Yes, my dear, thou successfully failed.

The one.
Told me feel it in thy gut.
Hammered thy heart, I did;
Entrap thyself no more.
Obscuring the better half,
Niggling over me, stop.
Exert thy effort for her behind me.

Spare her a glance, please?
Please, not me, the unworthy.
Unworthy fella with lots of baggage,
Baggage I tend to keep my own;
Own to carry, suffer and solve,
Solve to be a better someone,
Someone, even I, could be proud of.
