Down the road

Wandering down the road,
Thinking of what I've lost,
Of everything I've gained
At such great cost.
Life sometimes is too hard,
To understand it right,
Past too dark to perceive
Even as real...

Everything learned through the years you're there,
Crashing against new knowledge.
And you don't know how to treat it well,
So in the end you just destroy it.

Years go by, feelings stay,
Grinding with such dismay.
Smiles you don't even know how to react to.
Love as a leverage,
Friendship with jealousy,
Try-hard with nothing behind the illusion.

I wonder if I could... ever be happy.

Somebody's face beaming around,
Maybe I should have shared the laughter.
But deep within,
Sickening green,
Was weighting too much, about to crush me.
