You Are A Coward. (For the broken-hearted).




I always thought that you were the strongest person I will ever meet, but all I have been seeing is a mask.

You are a coward.

You dare venture into countries that you know well enough have monstrous armies, but then you go into hibernation when the armies come at you.

You dare furnish your thoughts with dreams unrealized, and fan that fire, but once the fire is burning, you pour ash all over it.

You are a coward.

You sing ballads to me when we are alone, but in the presence of merely strangers, people who do not even matter (or so I thought, but now I know), you behave as if you have only just met me.

But one thing you fail to realize, as much as you keep me hidden – us hidden - as much as you seem to ‘just-have-met-me’, as much as you hibernate and pour ash all over that blazing fire, you can never conceal how you felt, whilst doing all that you did.

You will never erase the imprint I made in your heart, as our souls connected.

You are a coward.

We might stop talking in future, we might even stop all form of contact all together, but your eyes, will always betray you, when it comes to me.
