The Child Within Me
When all I see are stars in the sky
And there is no moon to light
All I could remember is death
Of how did I let myself passed away
When all I see is clear blue waters
And there is no land to take shelter
All I could remember is hopelessness
Of how did I let myself suffer in misery
When all I could see is dark and blue
And all vivid colors have turned gray
All I could remember is sadness and pain
Of how did I let myself feel broken
This is misery, such brutal scrutiny
Like the sun melting my wings away
And as I strive harder to go farther to light
It melted my wings and drown me to life
How should I look at life?
They say good things about beautiful sceneries
But all I can ever see is the way it tormented me
I wish I could put on again the child I lost within me.
