Saber Bien


llorar
tears for friends passed
orgullo
too much pride to ask for help
too much talent to guess at their pain
smoke and mirrors
anestesia
drugs and distractions
smiles and laughter
intensity of the highs and lows
elation and destruction

doler
i know it well

but it's not yet too late
prisa
to chip away my facade
of guarded strength
vivir
to live through the lows
to love the highs

amar
to know it all well
