My heart hurts too

Quit calling me iron heart
for I can feel too.
I have learnt to leave
the tears behind, because
I want to stand strong for you.
If I cry I do not want your hand
To wipe the tears for me,
for I like to hold them and walk.
And so I do not cry.
The stolen glances I cherish,
have a bad view with moist eyes.
And so I do not cry.
If I fall and get hurt,
Wish you are never there
to help me stand up.
for I fear your fear to see me hurt.
I learnt to hide the scars,
so that you let me hug you even if it hurts.
But, yet I have not quite learnt
to run away from you.
And so, my heart aches too.
