Resides
Where Trouble Hides
Avoiding the paths where trouble hides,
you've learned to beware of trickster games,
and navigate emotional tides
in a sea of strangers with no names.
You can't imagine how love should feel,
for it's a feeling you've never known.
Yet, the ache in your heart feels real,
even though it's masked and seldom shown.
Hope has you chasing dream after dream,
yet love never tends to flow your way.
And at times, you feel the need to scream,
for happiness keeps slipping away.
Lost in a crowd, you're always alone,
worried that you will never belong.
For in this city of steel and stone,
every choice chosen somehow feels wrong.
