The Price of you

The Price of You


What’s the fee to fake a smile,  

to play at peace, to bleed in style?  

What’s the cost to love again

to risk the knife, to bear the stain?  


What’s the toll to let you close,  

when ghosts still whisper, “Don’t expose”?  

What’s the charge for love that’s real

not just the burn, but scars that heal?  


And if I fall, as fools still do,  

 

what will it cost to fall for you?
