I Cannot

I cannot cry because my tears have run dry.
When I am with you I fly.  When I am not 
With you I survive.  I know that I am happy 
To be alive.  I used to be able to confide in 
You and talk.  I have to nullify my 
Words because of where you now reside.
I feel inside myself start to dye.  And you
Know this because I cannot lie.  All I can 
Do is take a deep sign.  And try to deny
The ill words that I hear.  For now I have 
To pull away and not be so near.  For
The fear of the pain that I endear.
