Beware False Smiles

Cold room

Dark halls

In my mind

I'm stopped by fourty foot walls

Someone help me

I'm going insane

I just watched

All my dreams go down the drain

An empty silence

A fake laugh

What would happen

If my friends just let me be

I am pretty sure it would be

The end of me

God

If only I could have

A small amount of privacy

I think of my mother

Would I tell her goodbye

I remember her most

When I see a butterfly

Fly

Fly

Fly away

Take the chance

And get away

Go

Go

Do what I could

Only try

Keep flying

Delicate butterfly

Now it is gone

My smile no more

Don't make me go

Through the door.

I'm tired

So tired of

Searching for the light

I close my eyes

My heart stops

My soul takes flight
