Who Am I?
Who am I ,I wonder as I stare at my reflection
Glaring at myself as though I am under inspetion
I have tried so hard to be what everyone wanted me to be
Hiding behind this mask,I let others see
Lost and completely confused
twisted and tangled worlds become fused
I don't understand,nothing makes sense
being on guard is my only defense
People don't want to see whats before there eyes
they would rather turn away than hear someones cries
Don't say a word,nor make a sound
then no one will see whats all around
Each day I walk around,like everything is okay
but the truth is I don't know if I can make it another day
Inside I am crumbling falling apart
shattered and broken my tired heart
My eyes fill with puddles of tears
always knowing my deeepest fears
Always in fear always afraid
I am loosing my mind
that is tattered and frayed
No longer am I strong all that I am is weak
Is there any hope left to seek ??????
