Able to Feel

I've never cried so silently,Though I don't even have to.The tears are flowing slowly Right down my cheeks and neck.

I let them tickle meSo that it doesn't hurt...But it hurts so much!Can't bring myself to stop.

As much as I have alwaysHated crying moreThen a single tear —Now that's all I want.

Why, oh why, oh whyThe heart is even able...Why, oh why, oh whyAm I able to feel?
