Only a dream

Looking at the stars

Thinking of what i could be

Reminded of the scars

That no one else can see

Feeling enclosed in a cell with no bars

Someone save me

Never looking back

I must set myself free

Haunted by the past

Hoping someday i will have grown

Behind this mask i wear

My feelings never shown

Holding it all inside as i begin to tear

To everyone i remain uknown

I drop my fears and hold my head high

If people only understood how hard i really try

Was it worth it? i look back and wonder why

Are my dreams for hope or just to make me cry

Until i find my way i will continue hurting inside

Honest words from an honest heart run parallel, and you have got both. This was lovely
