I scream into the empty sky,
Only to hear my voice’s echo.
I’m so tired of wiping these tears
Away from my cheeks.
Just one night of peace, please.
Happiness is a poisonous illusion,
One that rips you up,
And leaves you helpless.
Sometimes it’s too much to take.
Yelling voices vibrate in my head.
The hope that I insist on keeping
Tears a hole in my stomach
That never goes away.
The shooting stars don’t care about me,
Because this war doesn't end.
