I feel so broken, pieces laid all about, Broken all around, from the inside and out. I soulfully cry, yet my screams go unheard, Not an uttering of sympathy not a consoling word. If it was a wound i could see, i could see it patched, But the destruction inside, laid waste there's no match. I cannot find the inner peace i so richly deserve, Nor the strength deep within to give me the nerve. I can't cry out any louder my voice has gone hoarse, My sorrowful eyes and torn heart, in silent remorse. Please save me from this torment, a rending intolerable, Please save me from this agony, this living is unbearable. Dark swirling clouds, a final rest, where the day's an end, Somewhere i can escape to my dreams, my long lost friend, Battered and wounded, I try to find my own feet, and manage a smile, to your smiling face i greet. So in the dark and shattered is where i am laid bear, Not a single voice back, sullen and broken, void of care. Walking in shadows, all the blank expressionless faces i see, As if i was translucent, a ghost an apparition i be. So again i go to lay my head, with a grim smile and hope, tomorrow to be joy, not wake to a pillow that I've soaked. So tomorrow and the next i will try with a brave face, All things must come to an end, even pain must run its race.
