I don't want to cry
not the way whales do
calling to a mate that
never comes
covered in darkness
at that bottom of ocean's
lonely

I don't want to cry
not the way clowns do
painting smiles over upside
down hearts
juggling pain for
the amusement while
torn apart

I don't want to cry
not the way you do
locked inside, key
thrown away
heart over grown
with weed, decay
none allowed in
no reaching out
unwilling to accept
what love's about

I don't want to cry

without you..

Not rough Deca, a little melancholy.
Thanks for reading.

Thanks Captain, kind of you to say.
