It Makes No Sense

by Pauline Sfalanga

Advertisement

It's like being afraid to put your feet on the ground.

Being afraid the ground will somehow disappear.

You see the ground there below you.

You know it's not going anywhere,

But you just won't step down.

It makes no sense

It's like being afraid to take a hand that's helping you up,

Being afraid the hand won't be there when you reach.

You see the hand outstretched to you.

You know they want to help you up.

But you just won't take their hand.

It makes no sense

It's like being afraid to cry on some ones shoulder.

Being afraid they will push you away,

They want you to cry on them.

They reach out their arms to hold you,

But you just won't lean on them.

It makes no sense

It really is me being afraid to trust him,

Being afraid he will hurt me like the rest,

I know he's not going anywhere,

I know he would never hurt me.

But I just won't trust him.

It makes no sense
