Burning To Let Go

August 24, 2005 - Wednesday 

 burning to let go 


the fear breeds deep within my soul, i am weakened by the need to grow, but i 
am overcome a  by stand still, am i destined to stay hollow and numb, will this 
life swallow me whole and young. i feel like you have stole away my identity and 
taken my sanity, please tell me what else it is that you want from me. i only cry 
when there is no emotion, otherwise i let it devour me inside, do you realize 
outside your world of illusion you have killed my only ambition, and left me in a 
state of mass confusion. i feel like you have stole away my identity and taken my 
sanity, please tell me what else it is that you want from me. humbled to the point 
of humiliation i have learned you have no limitation scars that don't fade why can't 
you get they will never heal forver burned and etched  into my skin. i feel like you 
have stole away my identity and taken my sanity, please tell me what else it is 
that you want from me.
