I had walked the same path to my house for many...
Sun rays highlighted the red, orange, and green...

A rainbow stretches across the sky,
pink, purple, and blue...

Soft whispers of a love forbidden and alone
Entered my heart like flowers in the spring...

Lost in a silent stare
No one ever seems to care...

Of reasons unknown,
I am ashamed of myself...

I hate people,
the way they talk...

You were a little late
with your sympathetic frown...

I said things I have never said
my trust was deep, comfort enveloped me...

People praise the lord,
hands in the air...

Today I exposed myself.
I emptied my heart...

Eyes burn with sorrow,
Wet lashes splash reminders of fear...

You thought you knew me,
you think you still do...
