MOONLIGHT IS TRYING TO SURVIVE

COLORS THAT ARE IN YOUR EYES

Can you see the colors that are in my eyes?
They change all the time
as I write my famous lines
for the whole world to read
what it is my heart bleeds
and see in darken dreams.
I have seen gentle faces that come to me in visions
I have seen the weak praying for peace
I have seen the paintings on the wall
that are hung down the halls,
yet at times...
all of this can play on the mind.
Like tonight I feel so small
where all thoughts have been cast beneath it all,
I could see myself running down the halls
where I was when I was young
Oh, when life seemed to be so much fun.
Yet, now things I must attain
brings me so many pains
and lots of rain
that can drive anyone insane,
things that I have seen
truly troubled me.
All those hurtful images of my broken past
seemed to find its way back
the voices and their words of verbal abuse
left me feeling very used,
where I was once was being abused
and always accused.
All those hateful words that were spoken
brought me down in tears
that gave me so many fears,
that lasted for too many years,
Oh, the pains that brought on more agony
when I had gone to sleep 
having all those bad dreams that cut me deep.
My voice was made to be silent
but I had always known when I got away
I will let out a very Big Sought
where the whole world can hear what it is I have to say,
and that would be,
I WILL NEVER TO BE SILENT EVER AGAIN.
