The Easy Way Out

by Sahar Rahim

Have I lost the will to feel
To love
To want

Is this what I'll have the rest of my life
A dream
A fantasy

Everytime I want to open up
I retreat
I fall back

It's too hard now to dig real deep
To lose
To love

Time now has built a shield around my heart
Ice cold
High walls

Do I want to take the easy way out
Be content
Live with what I have

Or should I dare to reach for what might not be
Do I share the dream
Could I finally be free

Acceptance was never the course I meant to plot
I'm a coward
I feel dead

"The Easy Way Out"... breaks my heart. I hope you're okay. Very well written but absolutely broke my heart because I felt it ... live it ... know it all too well... Really though, so beautiful. I wish you all the best and all the happiness! ~N
