Give me
somewhere quiet to cry
where no one can hear
no one can see
no one need know
no one but me.
Give me somewhere
where there's no need
to act like anyone else
where I can finally
be myself
whatever that is.
Give me
somewhere lightless to mourn
for the things
that have not yet happened
for that's what I am supposed to do
?
after all.
Give me somewhere
silent to sing
out a song of the sorry
and sad.
But give me
somewhere quiet to cry
where no one can hear
no one can see
no one need know.
No one but me.
