End
Live forever
Lost in my mind
Life getting left behind
Words I try to say
can't seem to find their way
Always getting lost
My heart, the cost
I don't understand
My thoughts were grand
In my mind
The meaning got left behind
What I always find
But when I write
People see the light
Always seems to be so
Words help wherever I go
So this is how I talk
My mind doesn't balk
Doesn't blank out
My head doesn't have to shout
For them to hear
I have no fear
Silent words spoken loud
They stand out proud
They say I am me
My words will always be
Can you not see
For in my head
My words end up dead
This way , forever I live
From my heart I give
What I have to say goes unspoken
Writing them down my thoughts go unbroken
So I share them with you
My desire is true
My body may die
I may never truly fly
Who of you would even cry
But my words will forever live
What pleasure will they give
To those of tommorow
I hope it helps their sorrow
That's all I want
Nobody, do I want them to haunt
Don't want them lost in my mind
Just to be left behind
When I die
For me don't cry
For I will live forever
With the words I have wrote
Here's a little note
By body wont last
Life flows so fast
But lost in my mind
No one will ever find
The dreams I dream
I'm more than I seem
The words run deep
I want them to forever keep
Will no one weep
When silence goes
It always grows
Something everyone knows
This is my word
I want it heard
I don't want it to bring hate
I want my mind a clean slate
So that when this body does die
No one will have to cry
I will be free to fly
Thank you
I speak true
You will see
My words will forever be
