Hurting inside it doesn't take much to smile
To say something kind
But Perfection is impossible to find
I have more bad days than average
I'm always less than optimistic
I never say what i want to say
I'm careless yet considerate
It's hard to say no
I'm too nice
It's hard to let go
And I sit here and wonder why their happiness isn't enough
I can't imagine an honest smile
I fill my heart with endless possibilities
Dreams not bright enough to light my dark soul
I can't imagine a gentle caress
A gentle breeze in the leaves of a tree
Light patter of ants agianst the sand
The flutter of a butterfly's wings
My eyes are open but I just can't see
I don't know what's true
It hurts just to breathe
Marking my heart are permanent scars of defeat
I wish i heard the tune they danced to
I wish someone would take me
I'm burning on the inside
Itching under my skin
I just want to run
Until my feet are sore
And fears are no more
Maybe I've lost my imagination
I know that I've lost my soul
But a soul is hard to find
When your eyes are wide open and you just can't see

PoetryJust a compilation of my thoughts through poetry. Hopefully a song to match every poem. And maybe get someone through the day. It's a little sloppy but it's me.
