In a world of pain and
sorrow
where misery always lie
beneath the stones of
love and praise
is countless in one's
eye
You used to smile and
shine on me
like the "Catcher in
the rye"
but now you're cold and
scournful
which makes me want to
cry
I went and asked for lots
of help
from people I don't know
they offered a hand and
friendly face
and begged to open my
gate
I cried in silence for
fear of the truth
and wondered where I'd
be
I said please help
but no one heard
no one excepting me
Throughout the pain and
sadness
the darkest clouds of
pain
there seemed to beam
a sunlight
that yet still held disdain
All I am is scared,
scared of being alone
scared that no one will
love me
and scared of the unknown
Reality is like my abyss
a hidden truth of shame
a cloudy world of discomfort
that always showers rain.
