Behind the Glass
May 18, 2013
Meaningless words
Are strewn in the air
The voices, they talk
but none full of care
Silent is my voice
Still is my body
Locked in a tower
Guarded with no key
My soul longs to speak
Yet fear hinders me
What if no one understands
The pain they can't see
I've lived for so long
Masking my emotions
Distorted by their opinions
A voice lost behind commotion
The things that were
The things that are
Mesh together as one
Entwining in confusion
Loss drenches my heart
That I can't put into words
An indescribable pain
Of things that once were
