Struggle

For the time I sent for my heart's prevent
I can't help but be scared
Jokers may joke and lovers may love but I am neither nor
The people I pass are sitting around waisting away in nothing
The internal struggle overcomes all I am
Yet for them they are blind to see
A shield protects that aching heart
Covered by scars so wide
So when I open my mouth I choose my words so nothing will pass by.
