Letters To Me
Outside shell hides true feelings.
Even though the pain piles up like ten foot ceilings.
The more layers I try not to shed the more keep peeling.
I tried to lock you out but the key you keep stealing.
In you keep reeling...the consequence of it is you keep me from healing.
Maybe this all has a deeper hidden meaning.
But for now ill shell up hiding my true feelings.
Ill continue to not let you see what I see.
Pretending I'm okay and a distance ill keep.
Because the more that I roam I only continue to seek.
For that promise you made but I knew you wouldn't keep.
It's left me empty..my heart is bare.
Off in the distance is where I stare.
I may not show it but I do still care.
The pain of losing you is what I feared.
Now I dream wishing for some serenity.
Hoping that calm waters will soon be ahead of me.
Wishing that pain won't get the better of me.
Maybe I should write this down and send this as a letter to me.
