My Kindred Spirit

Drifiting into the land of dreams Where shadows and light become one Where sometimes hate turns to love And where water can turn into blood. You came to convey a message That only I can understand. Nobody else there to help you No one around to help you stand. Somebody burned you once again Your battle scars say it all Someone set up for a trap Then laughed as you trip and fall. Behind the sunny smiling mouth Lays someone with a broken heart Behind the shell of this man Stands a soul that's been torn apart. Behind the twinkle of his eyes There is a sadness nobody knows He hides his pain behind laughter So that the hurt will never show. You came to me for a reason Even if it's only when I'm alseep Your spirit is communicating with mine Because in the flesh we never speak.
