The soul that has held on to long
looking for something not even there
The soul that cries every night
waiting for an answer
The soul that tries to pretend nothings wrong
despite the destruction all around
The soul that longs for nothing more then answers
but only finds questions
The soul that prays for freedom
but only finds a cage
The soul that lies to the ones it loves
but has no one to love
The soul thats scared to open up
because of past pains
The soul that has thought of giving up
but held on for the hope it will get better
The soul who sees nothing but beauty
in everything but itself
The soul that wants comfort
but is to scared to seek it
The soul that walks alone
despite the friend beside it
The soul that only knows pain and sorrow
but tries to understand love and hope
The soul that has more secrets
then anyone can count
The soul that gave up
and said good bye
The soul that could no longer be strong
and finally broke down
The soul that kept up an image of happiness
to hide the pain inside
The soul whose shell finally broke
revealing pain and shame
The soul that never shows its true colors
for the fear of being judged
The soul that is all of these things
and then some
