Perfect Place

It's hard for me to wear this pain everyday

I try to hide it in everyway

My perfect place

Went upside down

Facial expressions from smiles to frowns

Surrounded by my family

I can be great and achieve

But My family all knew why I had to leave

Like a wound so deeply cut into my skin

My world was shattered; I was hurting within

I've come a long way

Down this road

To every memory locked in my head

I have a secret code

I lock them inside me

In the depths of my soul

You can still glance at my eyes and see hurt

My revolution, my rebirth

My redemtion has yet to come

It's not much of an inprovement

It's like moving from a ghetto to a slum

But in a emotional state

My memories are my Utopia

They are my perfect place.
