A Heart with Empty Pages

037

The peak of the mountains through the clouds

in a city, I'm screaming loud

but no one hears me,

my cries cloaked in invisibility

A river not too far away

I'm in danger, when you ask me to stay

the night with you,

I know I'll return home all black and blue

The forest that protects me from my fears

is so close, but I'm in tears

the path is moonlit,

but even if I run I can't make it

A lake where I could swim away from your hands

you won't let me go, you want me to dance

for you but I can't,

I feel tiny and small as an ant

Fields of plains I wish could help

pray that you don't hear me yelp

fear I'll be punished for my cry,

long that on this bed, you wont make me lie.
