a little bit longer. and i'll be fine.

i'll try
but you won't understand

what these firecrackers
in my brain
are saying what they mean
i can describe it
but to you its like a story of the stars
you can see the distant lights
but these constellations
that glow so brightly in my head
their vivid shapes
are scattered dots to you
far far away
pretty
but powerless
like the tiny lightbulbs
we place on the christmas tree
to murmur how sweet
and then flip te switch to let real light in

i don't blame you
what good would that do
i'm just going to keep trying
because talking is better than crying

any day.
