Heart Of Hell

I needed some stability
My inner mentality
was cracking inch by inch
My nerves were starting to pinch
Unraveled and full of doubt
Fearful not to work it out
My past kept catching up with me
Scarring my heart painfully
With no relief anywhere
Wishing for someone to care
About my life--what I've been through
Lonely, hurting and so blue
Slowly realizing I could end--
Up with a soul that will not mend
The insanity I have been living
Kept me hard and numb from giving
MY love to someone special
Because of the times I fell
For lying hearts too many times
Learning of their cheating crimes
Piece by piece and week by week
My emotions slowly leaked
Into a puddle on the floor
My wings clipped and could not soar
With an angel of pure love
That wont lead to push and shove
On a heart becoming brittle
Protecting the only little
Heart corner that's still alive
Knowing it can only thrive
If a new and bright tomorrow
Overshadows all the sorrow
Bringing hope back to a shell
That has only known pure hell
