Chapter 1184

Don't Mistake Close For Happy

Why is the one who is closest
Actually the farthest one away
You can reach out and touch them
But they're a million miles away

Most try to suck it up
The failure they want to hide
Maybe it's the last of
Their self worth and pride

Everything is crushed
There's nothing left to fix
They focus on what once was
As they obsess and transfix

Yet they linger and hang on
There once was something there
It's impossible to repair
But they still take the dare

The look may be snappy
The spirit is scrappy
Everything has turned crappy
Don't mistake close for happy

Nobody
