Unbroken
It is in spirit I am but not
A unbroken soul is lead to bleed
That of my soul I am without
But within I fight to survive
This being striving for life
Striving to love even down deep
Unbroken of two halves lingers
That of knowledge of knowing existence
And that of emptiness of feeling inside
I know I am not alone you see
For I feel you inside of me
Close in light but darkness prevails
I feel the urge to scream
I feel separate from this being I am
Unbroken I fail to fall to my knees
I am strong even tears shed not out
As you rip my integrity to pieces
I love still this bond we hold
The will of strength to stand tall
Unbroken I dare to fold under the earth
I will not die that to which I've become
But believe light shows the heart
I should love even in dark
The things I do not hold in the day
But be whole in myself for I must
Cause unbroken I am not
But me I am all but that
I am a man in life's taken
But a person of dream and struggle
Just to remain I must stay as one
