Alone

My heart be made 

I want to stay

Vulnerability is what i seek

I retain your words like souls to keep


The words linger beneath my skin

Peeling back i see within

The scars go deeper than the blade

On the floor my soul's displayed

Like a picture burned in stone

My free spirit leaves to roam


Gathering the peices

I chose to pray

You made me feel at home 

My fears at bay


Was i the one making you drown

My eyes start to water 

And my breathing doesnt slow down

Backing away slowely 

what did i miss?

A memory kept so close leaves in a hiss


My ears start to ring and my tears a soft, silent call

Through thick and thin

through it all

I am only a child

Let me out of this place

But fear stands face to face
