Music of the Heart

Tue, 04/14/2015 - 21:24 -- Cammy

Sitting all by myself, it seems to be only me,

striving to attempt, what I can't truly be.

Heartache and pain, I don't know what for,

it just seems, that you shut the door.

I see it in your eyes, I feel it in my heart,

they look a reflection of my part-

in it all, of the shutting you out

from what i'm hiding when I shout

"Leave me alone," can't you see?

you're hurting a part deep inside of me.

 

The pain hidden in my eyes, the empty of your heart,

Why can't I be the one to start-

the conversations, to stir the heart?

To change the mind, to will the soul

to feel that strong unearthly pull

To join in music one and one,

to truly, really, fully become-

pals in heart, two in one.

 

or at least just friends, but maybe more

but then I          

go and shut that door.

but once more

maybe you,

   will try again?

 

Try to see what I may hide

like a terrible secret deep inside

keep asking if i'm A OK

and maybe then I'll say, na:

"look into my heart and you will see,

a different part, inside of me.

a swooping bird

a falling dove.

a small hope

and a burning love."
