Inside Me

by Debra   Apr 3, 2005


What do you think
You would see
If you looked
Deep inside me

If you got to my heart
And breached the surrounding walls
If you offered to help
And answered my calls

What would you see
Behind my lonely eyes
Would you dry each tear fallen
With my many cries

Would you be able to handle
All the stress and the pain
Could you recognize
My soul that was slain

Would you have thought
That I was broken inside
Or that it's getting to be
Too much to hide

Could you have guessed that for every smile
There were three frowns
Or that for each happy thought
Another one drowns

I know you won't like
What you will find
Even though you'll say
That you don't mind

I guess you didn't think
Of what actually might be
Deep down
Inside me
