Why do i try?

Why do I make myself believe its ok?
Tears still fall when you can’t stay
I still feel alone when you leave my side
I feel as though I should hide

Why do I think I can last the day?
Should I cower and hide away?
Without you, I cannot live
To you, my love I shall give

Why do I feel like I should cry?
Or is it the fact that these tears lie?
A single tear is a weight on the ground
Don’t let it bring you down

Why do I try to fight these tears?
They are bound to fall over the years
So why should I try to hide them?
I won’t let them hurt me again
