Unbeknownst

I feel my heart Shattered beneath my skin My arms aching, calling out for you... Who..? Here I lie, shattered crying out for sweet release Or sweet embrace... A guide or a lover whomever matches the pace... Of the raging fire in my heart That burns for no one Yet burns just the same Not caring to spare my soft soul from it's pain. Soft like cotton... Not strong enough to shield Not strong enough to steel my mind, pick up and grind... Like tomorrow is all that matters even when all my yesterdays have left me in tatters... Moving through every today as a ghost Unaware, unrecognizable, unbeknownst...
